Available to hire
I solve problems and build for the long term. I seek alignment on the vision and create a culture which includes focus, relentless execution, strong ethics and integrity. I am results oriented but understand that I achieve my goals when I help those around me achieve their goals.
I bring 30 years of experience turning around organizations, leading mergers and acquisitions, and driving cost reductions through sharp strategy and strong negotiation. I mentor teams and former colleagues to deliver outstanding results while staying focused on long-term value and community impact.
