Having over 30 years of business experience as a corporate employee, consultant, contractor, and solopreneur, I understand businesses from the ground up. As an Army veteran of Operation Desert Shield / Desert Storm and having my primary areas of expertise in Operations, I understand processes, systems, and, most importantly, a sense of urgency.

I work best with small to medium-sized companies that have plateaued or have gotten as far as they can and now need help going to the next level through process, procedure, and/or system optimization.

I've helped businesses improve in the following areas:

Operations:
Distribution, Freight, Logistics, Manufacturing, Packaging, Productivity, Production, Quality, Regulatory, Supply Chain Optimization, Supply Chain Management, Transportation, Warehousing

Procurement:
Category Management, Contracting, Key Performance Indicators, Negotiating, Performance Management, Purchasing, Strategy and Tactics, Supplier Management, Supplier Optimization, Supply Base Reduction, Supplier Strategy, Total Cost of Ownership

Finance:
Accounting, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Collections, Corporate Purchasing Cards, General Ledger

Management:
Change Management, Coaching, Governance, Leadership, Mentoring, Process Design, Process Improvement, Process Re-engineering, Professional Development, Project Management, Value Stream Mapping

Systems:
Definition, Selection, Design, Implementation

Looking forward to working with you to improve your business!
