Experience

Real business experience creates real business results.

For more than 35 years, I've partnered with organizations of all sizes, from entrepreneurial startups and family-owned businesses to national brands and nonprofit organizations. While every organization is unique, the common thread is helping leaders strengthen their businesses, build exceptional teams, and achieve sustainable growth.

Who I work with

Owners & founders

Entrepreneurial startups and family-owned companies working through growth, margin, and succession decisions.

Executive teams

Leadership groups that need alignment, clearer accountability, and a shared operating rhythm.

Boards & nonprofits

Mission-driven organizations building governance, staffing, and strategy that hold up over time.

Emerging leaders

High-potential managers stepping into bigger roles with the skills and confidence the role requires.

The through line

Advice grounded in having run the business, not just studied it.

I've owned and operated companies, led teams, and guided owners through growth, turnaround, hiring, and succession. That operating background is why the work lands: recommendations are practical, measurable, and built to be executed by the team you already have.
