I have over 20 years of executive level experience helping companies raise capital, get bank loans or lines of credit, increase trade credit, improve revenue and profits, improve cash flow, and perform due diligence for mergers and acquisitions. I'm a CPA with a master's degree in Finance and my industry experience includes retail, distribution, consumer products, manufacturing, utilities, telecom, and technology. At large multi-billion-dollar companies, I learned the importance of thinking strategically and rolling up my sleeves to drive successful completion of business improvements. At smaller companies, I’ve worked closely with owners and CEOs to help the business overcome challenges and improve profits. As a B2B CFO® Partner, I have an interest in helping the owners of privately-held businesses reach their personal and business goals. My sweet spot in terms of the businesses I work with are those whose sales are in the $5M - $100M range. I provide my consulting services on an as-needed long-term basis.
