About Me
I have spent nearly 25 years running businesses, backed by an even longer career in Information Technology. I started as a programmer and went on to work in project management, systems design, analytics, predictive modeling, large-scale integrations, infrastructure, and security. That experience allows me to speak both “Business” and “IT” and bring a balanced perspective to the companies and clients I work with.
Throughout my career, I have worked on strategic initiatives for organizations including Marriott, Nationwide Insurance, Nestlé, Borden Foods, Navistar International, AkzoNobel, and MAC Tools. I have also experienced the startup world firsthand, including both successes and failures, which have shaped how I approach strategy, innovation, and growth.
Today, I am especially drawn to small and medium-sized businesses and startups, where the right strategy and resources can make a significant impact. I also serve on boards and advisory boards, bringing decades of business and technology experience to new challenges.
My passion has always been creating something out of nothing, whether it is a business, process, strategy, or new idea. I am always interested in new challenges, new opportunities, and hearing the stories behind other businesses. So, let’s talk. Tell me your story!
