The Opportunity

Sean’s most recent venture is Sierra Peak Investment, which he co-founded in 2020 with Erik Paulsen. A privately held investment management firm headquartered in Newport Beach, California, Sierra seeks to place investor equity into performing and secure notes that are backed by real estate — primarily in the Western United States. Managers of this company have been involved in more than $850 million in real estate transactions.

Beyond real estate and finance, Sean is focused on helping others. In 2019, he sponsored Prosperity Homes to build a new home for a family in need in Baja, California. A local church donated the land and Sean paid for the materials. In just 72-hours, Sean and his employees built a brand new two-bedroom home for the family — then outfitted it with new furniture.

In 2020, Sean also founded Resource Wrap, a 501c3 non-profit with a mission to bridge the information gap between resources available to the homeless and the homeless population itself. The charity delivers nutrient-rich burritos wrapped in paper that points them to resources for rebuilding their lives.
