We have sat in the seat. Now we are in your corner.
Twenty years of senior financial leadership inside privately held and private equity backed companies. The kind of seat where the numbers have to be right and the decisions carry consequences. We bring that standard to independent veterinary practices.
Built for the owner who has outgrown the setup that got them here.
Nick Giacobe founded Blackridge for a specific owner. One who has built something real, has outgrown their current financial setup, and needs a senior financial professional to help them grow and scale with confidence, without the cost and commitment of a full time CFO.
That is still who we serve. The practice has changed. The standard has not: practical, strategic, financially sophisticated, and genuinely operator friendly on every engagement.

We are a dedicated, high touch firm.
Senior only
You work directly with experienced financial leadership. Not a rotating cast of junior staff learning on your practice.
Outcomes, not output
We do not sell variance reports and cash flow statements. We sell stronger margins, calmer cash, and confident decisions. The tools are how we get there.
Forward looking
We spend more time on what is next than on what already happened. Forecasting, planning, and helping you see around corners.
A real partner
We sit alongside you as a sounding board for the decisions that keep you up at night. Responsive, accessible, invested.
Our team. Your partners.
