Your Goals. Our Expertise. Shared Success.
Athena Management aims to deliver exceptional and seamless client experiences built on transparency, trust, and collaboration.
We guide business owners to achieve their goals with a radical approach to collaboration with all involved, ensuring a straightforward, honest process while driving a successful outcome that maximizes value.
We deliver an organized, transparent, and supportive experience throughout our engagement with a unique method tailored to meet each client’s needs until the culmination of their transaction.
Athena Management was founded by visionary women united by a passion for their work and a commitment to fostering a supportive environment where client relations and innovative creative solutions thrive.
Drawing upon many years of combined expertise in operations, development, procurement, marketing, finance, communications, and mergers and acquisitions (M&A), they created Athena Management with a mission to offer a more personalized, high-touch client experience in sharp contrast with the impersonal nature often found in larger firms. Our mission goes beyond client success, striving to cultivate a professional and nurturing workplace that leads to meaningful connections and successful outcomes.
Guided by the core philosophy of "when one wins, we all win," Athena Management is dedicated to empowering both clients and team members, ensuring that collective success is at the heart of everything we do.

“My organization had significant experience as a buyer, but the role of seller was daunting. I cannot imagine going through that process without professional assistance. Rachel, in particular, provided a steady hand throughout the transaction and handled a number of sensitive conversations on our behalf that allowed us to focus on priorities.”
