About me

Growth and people are at the heart of any business. I excel at facilitating business development and positioning small to multimillion-dollar companies for growth by collaboratively creating strategy and execution plans, driving continuous improvement, and leveraging my extensive background across manufacturing and operations.

Entrepreneurial and collaborative, I have 30+ years of success growing and fixing manufacturing companies, executing growth strategies, and developing value-based opportunities. C-level leaders, executives, and my peers look to me when they require a subject matter expert on lean methodologies, business transformation, strategic planning, and manufacturing operations. My success is reinforced by my track record of achievement developing future leaders, leading global operations, and maintaining steady EBITA growth. I have been inside both the ground level and leadership of building "World Class" manufacturing operations, so I know what questions to ask and have been a part of the answers.

Throughout my career, I’ve earned a reputation as an innovative business builder who convenes collaboration with a unique mix of entrepreneurial mind, global experience, data-driven approach, patience, and commitment towards achieving operational excellence. Every advancement and success have come from my competitive drive and required me to apply my servant leadership style and deep knowledge across manufacturing in the medical device, automotive, consumer, agricultural, and defense markets.

As I’ve advanced through my progressive, cross-functional career path, I’ve honed my ability to execute strategic plans, identify a businesses’ most pressing needs, and position our teams for success. I am an elite operations leader who knows how to leverage relationships to produce tangible results.
