Eyal Ambar is an Associate at Pivot >, where she supports real estate, operational, and financial restructurings across hospitality, commercial, and mixed-use portfolios. She brings a strong analytical foundation shaped by hands-on experience in financial modeling, data integrity, and strategic portfolio review.

Eyal first joined Pivot > through the 2025 Summer Internship Program, where she contributed to distressed-asset analyses, rent-roll evaluations, and investor-ready financial materials. She returned to the firm with a demonstrated ability to transform complex data into clear insights, helping partners drive value-preserving decisions for clients navigating challenging market conditions.

Prior to Pivot >, Eyal gained experience in data analytics, education management, and student-run consulting. As a Data Analyst Intern at Cornerstone OnDemand, she supported Salesforce migration and data-cleanup efforts across 9,000+ global accounts. She also served as Assistant Center Director at Mathnasium, managing instructors, scheduling, and student progress tracking.

At UC San Diego, Eyal founded and served as President of the university’s first TAMID Consulting chapter, where she oversaw eight pro bono consulting projects involving market research, competitor analysis, pricing strategy, and technology/data analytics. She also leads education for the organization’s analyst team, creating a hands-on curriculum covering DCF modeling, pitch-deck development, and consulting fundamentals. She now serves on the leadership team planning TAMIDCon 2026, a national consulting and finance conference expected to host more than 500 attendees.

Eyal is pursuing a B.S. in Business Economics with a Minor in Finance at UC San Diego (expected June 2026). She is certified in Bloomberg Market Concepts (BMC) and Bloomberg Spreadsheet Analysis (BSA/BQL).

Outside of work, she enjoys hiking, the beach, and pickleball, and volunteers with the Friendship Circle of San Diego supporting children and adults with special needs.

Our Story

Pivot > originated from a conversation between friends, Lance Miller and Peter Elkin, both veterans of restructuring and turnaround industries, and former company leaders. Frustrated with the traditional advisory firm model, they sought a better approach centered on client interests and results. Over dinner, they envisioned a best-in-class value proposition, which eventually became Pivot >, attracting like-minded individuals who shared their mission and industry distinctions.

Our core principles include delivering bespoke solutions tailored to each situation, prioritizing long-term client relationships over fees, and fostering the growth and well-being of our employees. Unlike many firms in the industry, we operate under a shared compensation model, ensuring everyone is invested in our clients’ success. As we continue to grow, we remain committed to providing exceptional service and building lasting relationships with our clients.
