I have four major areas of proven expertise from my 30 years of career experience.Through my founding of Wash Rocket and Aloha Car Wash, I have experience as a commercial real estate developer, working with banks, governments, and contractor builders. I have expertise in concept development, consumer market analysis, pursuing multi-million dollar financing, project management, consumer sales and marketing, and ultimately P&L responsibility. With divestiture of business, experienced in full life cycle leading seller project team in acquisition by private equity firm.Another area of expertise is in Sales and Demand Generation, delivering results and receiving top recognition at IBM. I was an IBM Client Rep selling to and managing accounts. Then my career progressed through Sales Management, and into Sales Initiatives and Operations, working with a $2.5B Telesales unit, founding and hosting a series of campaigns to build-up a high-volume sales pipeline. In recognition of my contributions in these roles, IBM sponsored my MBA education at Emory's Goizueta Business School, where I focused on consulting and financing skills.As a Marketing Professional, my responsibilities and accomplishments grew in scale and scope: in Telesales Channel Marketing which included integrating a unit that had been acquired by IBM; leading a team of Portfolio and Program Executives to drive IBM's growth strategy in Healthcare & Life Sciences; or as a Global Leader coordinating and guiding Geography Teams with strategy and planning, budgeting, and execution of programs, enablement, and channels marketing. In this global role, I was assigned to a core team charged with a profound corporate-wide transformation of IBM's approach and execution of marketing, including a re-engineered metrics and management system.My skills from working alongside IBM senior executives, pursuing business opportunities, focusing-in on issues with root-cause analysis, resolving with targeted actions and concluding with measurable results, combined with my experience in sales and marketing, have come full-circle in my entrepreneurial ventures.Specialties: Real Estate Development & Construction, Consumer & Small Business Start-up and Operations, Sales, Sales Operations, Marketing - Marketing Intelligence, Messaging, Portfolio Development and Management, Programs, Enablement, Channels, Strategy & Planning
