With over 18 years in the Navy, I've honed a deep expertise in leadership and strategic decision-making that now empowers the Navy's elite at the Naval Leadership & Ethics Center. My mission aligns with cultivating exceptional commanders through dynamic coaching, reflecting the values and culture of the organization. I bring a wealth of diverse experiences from my service, ensuring future leaders are equipped for the challenges ahead.As the 10th Commanding Officer of USS SPRUANCE (DDG 111), I led with distinction, fostering a culture of excellence and strategic foresight. My leadership was characterized by effective decision-making, bold strategy, and the development of tangible skills within our team. These experiences have enriched my coaching methods, enabling me to guide and inspire the Navy's future leaders with proven strategies and insights. My experience and effectiveness are applicable to any industry that is in search of a process-driven, cross-functional, innovative, creative, and decisive leader that fosters an inclusive, winning culture that delivers operational excellence. I will be transitioning from the Navy in 2026 and I am open to opportunities and building connections now.
