I have never liked these things.. In the simplest terms, I like to build out ideas. On my own, or if I am lucky, with some equally as driven people. As a creator, or as an investor, it all starts with relationships. I have been fortunate to work with some very vision-forward and intelligent people who make me look smarter than I probably am :) Ideas, people, common vision & trust why make it more complicated than that? I am proud to have been, or continue to be, associated with many distinctive and successful companies as an owner/creator, investor, and/or advisor. Some of them include: American Healing Technologies, a B2B Chinese herbal company created by leveraging international relationships; Accern, an enterprise news (research and data) analytics company; and Mogul, a technology platform empowering women throughout the world.The rest is begrudgingly written in LinkedIn-ese.An entrepreneur with experience in international & domestic consulting, I place the practical alongside the vision. Expertise in helping entrepreneurs & small business owners to not only think “outside-the-box” to deliver value, but forge ahead with the velocity required to implement in a bootstrapping environment.Much of my experience has been in growth industries (including traditional & alt. medicine & technology); however, these businesses and projects required a keen sensitivity to the consumer end user experience, too. This awareness of where B2B and B2C overlap differentiates & qualifies me to address the needs of other emerging growth industries in a world that is becoming increasingly H2H (human to human). Growth through story telling & connection.Within BD Resources, servicing clients’ needs and/or launching businesses with or without other partners, I enjoy implementing paradigm shifts in oftentimes, inefficient industries. This includes creating a unique medical operations management company that helps similarly aligned medical professionals, dramatically reduce their cost structure. I am committed to building infrastructures that will deliver a higher quality product or service of greater value that also meet the challenges of now living in a border-less, high tech-driven world.Wow, that sounds impressive, but the truth is I have failed more than I have succeeded. Humility opens your eyes, hubris closes them.
