Russell’s journey as CEO and founder of Fuse Capital Group is defined by a relentless drive to help businesses thrive where conventional finance falls short. Growing up, he learned the value of hard work and a steadfast commitment to results—principles that have guided every step of his entrepreneurial path.

Over the past twenty years, Russell has built an impressive track record: he founded two companies, acquired two more, and successfully exited one. His early experience with his first business, Envido, underscored the transformative power of strategic debt financing—not just for growth, but as a catalyst for successful exits. This hands-on understanding inspired him to launch Fuse Capital in 2013, with a mission to provide tailored debt solutions to ambitious companies.

At Fuse Capital, Russell has personally structured and closed over 200 private debt transactions, always focused on aligning the needs of both his clients and private debt funds.
