My experience encompasses senior leadership roles across diverse fields such as engineering, systems integration, software development, manufacturing, education, and youth development. I was a professor at a local university for 13 years teaching economics, entrepreneurship, and finance. I’ve had my own small business providing consulting and IT infrastructure services since 2013.
I consider my core strengths to lie in teaching and mentoring. My role as a professor was to teach and mentor MBA students through the entrepreneurial and business formation process. I consider myself to be a “jack of all trades” where I feel I can add value in all areas while also knowing when to bring in specific subject matter experts for deeper dives. Specific strengths include reviewing and guiding the creation of business plans, strategies, and financials.
I consider myself to be a good listener willing to work with you at your pace and be by your side throughout your whole journey.
