I am a self-starter, hands-on operator that is strong both strategically and tactically. My management skills, knowledge and experience enable me to help companies achieve their strategic objectives, as well as, give me the opportunity to bring out the best from my colleagues and staff. I am collaborative and have a successful track record of nurturing strong, cross-functional relationships within the companies I’ve worked.
I seek and thrive in start-up and growth stage environments and am confident in my ability to bring my experience to bear and make an immediate impact.
I'm generally sector and stage agnostic. I've been fortunate in my career to have worked with companies with the following key elements that make for a very mutually rewarding experience: 1) great product or service with which I can identify--preferably one that is changing a paradigm, 2) smart, dedicated management and employees who are passionate about the business, 3) a culture of dedication while having fun along the way, and 4) an environment that promotes both professional and personal development.
