It all started by taking a less wandered path after college. With an affinity for global cultures, I was accepted into a Japanese manufacturing training program at Walbro Corp., an engine component engineering and manufacturing company. I completed 3 master’s degrees, dedicated several years to Intel finance, and returned 6 years later as President of Walbro’s Japanese subsidiary driving 300% growth over 5 years. Through adaptability, grit, and resilience, I have capitalized on these experiences over the last 30 years and scaled multibillion-dollar organizations. I believe the keys to my success stem from four key principles:◆ 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐜 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: Leveraging a global perspective, strategic vision, and innovation, I think differently about business, people, and leadership. I can detect a business’s strengths and weaknesses and build the teams needed to quickly propel growth.◆ 𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐞𝐱𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞: I have high expectations for my teams and I am a stickler for details. I engage with all levels of the organization and empower my teams to accomplish more than they thought possible. ◆ 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐬𝐲𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐬: I have built and restructured multiple executive and operating leadership teams to focus on growth, succession development, and financial performance. I foster trust, actively listen, create accountability, and align the right principles and values to build high-performing teams.◆ 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞: I am personally invested in the career path of my team members. I learn about how they want to grow, where they want to be, and create a plan to stretch their capabilities. Leverage these key principles, I have successfully: ▪ Transitioned BrightView from private equity ownership structure to public company in 20 months.▪ Introduced and established awareness and understanding in a new service sector (commercial landscaping) to the public investment world in 5 years. ▪ Served as key executive member of the leadership team in the largest transaction ($37B) by Warren Buffet for the sale of Precision Castparts to Berkshire Hathaway.▪ Spearheaded 50+ multibillion-dollar acquisitions from family-owned companies to major industrial manufacturers with cross-border operations. ▪ Grew double digit revenue, significantly improved cash generation and expanded core/product service line profitability across multiple industries.▪ Provided operational, strategic planning, succession, and M&A expertise as an operating executive and board member.
