What sets me apart is the ability to bring value as a true strategic partner to my clients by bringing business acumen, a status-quo-breaking vision of the future, and the leadership to deliver the resources to build that future. My clients hear from me, not what they want to hear, but rather, what they need to know to improve their business' financial performance and competitiveness.I was born in the Philadelphia area. Thanks to the sacrifices made by my parents, I was able to attend a top notch prep-school and went on to a bachelors degree in Chemistry from the University of Delaware.After graduation, I made it my goal to earn a sales opportunity representing a chemical or pharmaceutical company. After working as a lab technician and then a product engineer in the plastics industry, I worked hard to find my first sales position. I was not selected for the first position for which I had interviewed, but to my surprise was offered another territory with the same company in North Carolina. I had caught the tiger, but now had to figure out what to do with it. Over 20 plus years, I've developed the sales and marketing skills to go along with my technical knowledge. Great mentoring and training along the way, have given me the strong foundation on which I have built a successful record. Continued study, experimentation and development have kept me ahead of the curve.Over the years, I have been recognized not only for the business I’ve closed, but also for meeting the company’s strategic objectives, for demonstrating the highest level of technical expertise among my peers in sales and marketing and for uncompromising integrity.Specialties: Process development, Marketing presentations, brainstorming, negotiating, developing unique product/service offerings to meet customer concerns, market analysis, word-smithing.
