A practice built on passion, hard work and experience.
Principal and Founder
DREW MACKINTOSH
I started Mackintosh IR in 2014 following a ten-year career as Vice President of Investor Relations and Corporate Communications for The Ryland Group, one of the nation’s largest homebuilders at the time. Since then, I have worked with a wide variety of clients as both a full-service investor relations resource and a supplement to companies’ existing efforts.
I love what I do because it combines two things that I am passionate about – the financial markets and storytelling. I started out my career as an institutional equity salesman, working closely with industry analysts, traders and capital markets teams to service institutional clients. I earned an MBA from the University of Texas and later became a CFA charterholder. I also dabble in screenwriting and recently fulfilled a lifelong dream of having one my my screenplays become a movie (THE SALAMANDER KING).
What I’ve learned over the years is that Wall Street is no different than any other audience - investors want to hear a compelling, well-crafted narrative that strikes a chord. I have spent the last twenty-plus years honing my skills as a storyteller and figuring out the types of corporate profiles that resonate with the investors, employees and other stakeholders. I have helped several companies fine tune their messages, enhance their standing with investors and attract capital, and I can do the same for you.
