As an accomplished and passionate consumer products and business leader, I bring established company process with entrepreneurial innovation. I help companies innovate, plan and grow. With my “roll-up-the-sleeves” approach, I earn trust and respect quickly. My strategic vision drives every action—from raising capital for new ventures to launching ground-breaking local and national brands. Over the years, I’ve worked as a founder, employee, advisor, owner and consultant with a number of early-stage, mid-growth and family-owned businesses. I’m constantly inspired by the conviction, courage and innovation required to successfully navigate challenges and recognize and seize opportunities along the way. I know firsthand what it takes to launch and build a successful company and brand. Sometimes that takes a scrappy, heads-down approach; other times it requires top level, strategic visioning and planning. As I move forward in my career, I’m excited to play a role in the evolution of a fast growing business, or an emerging mid-sized company, whether in manufacturing, wholesale, foodservice, or retail.
