Tom Melly is Managing Partner of Mirror Partners and founded the firm in 2024 to focus on small LP secondary transactions, a space where he has been actively investing since 2016.

Tom has worked on hundreds of transactions and frequently works with family offices as both sellers of assets and investors in the Mirror funds.

Mirror's strategy is to purchase small fund positions at a discount to intrinsic value. By targeting positions with less than $1m of NAV, Mirror seeks to purchase interests at 15-20% below the broader secondary market. 

Mirror invests in a wide range of strategies while focusing on North American Buyout funds. As of June 2026, the Mirror portfolio of over 90 funds has been constructed at an aggregate price of 59% of NAV.
