As the President and CEO of BBB Southeast Texas, I lead two non-profit organizations that promote ethical business practices and consumer trust in the local marketplace. I have over 20 years of experience in various management roles in both non-profit and for-profit sectors.My core competencies include strategy development and implementation, problem solving, organizational and relationship management, coaching, team building, project management, and organizational governance. I have a broad background in procurement, negotiation, direct and indirect sales, vendor relations, budgeting, human resources, event planning, fundraising, and product development. I value autonomy, self-discipline, honesty, integrity, altruism, innovation, and determination. I am more impressed by those who do versus those who say they do.
