My early career was all about entrepreneurship, building two successful businesses from the ground up. I loved it, solidifying venture capital, establishing the operations, holding P&L responsibility, and implementing growth strategies that led to millions of dollars in revenue.Then, I went into the education field with a private for-profit college and that is where I found my true passion. College education can change people’s lives. I saw it repeatedly.Over the years, I held a number of leadership and executive roles, including V.P., Student Services, and ultimately, college president. I was involved in staff leadership, new campus openings, new academic programs, support programs, retention efforts, and the list goes on. Awards were earned for superior performance.I take great pride in the strides made at the colleges I was a part of, which included building a college from the ground up and driving enrollments to such numbers that the college was featured in a magazine article for rapid growth. I didn’t do it alone, and together with my team, we developed academic and support programs as well as built strategic partnerships that allowed us to maximize access, enrollments, and retention. When the economy slowed, I developed a successful roadmap to counter its impact and once again drive growth. I am also proud of our outreach efforts, including reaching out to the Hispanic community and developing a specialized bilingual program. We put quality front and center and we saw students flourish, which included traditional and adult students across the cultural spectrum. Through it all, I saw people build their confidence, knowledge, and experience. For some it was life changing, altering their life and career path. To know that I am part of something that makes such a difference in other’s lives has been monumental.Completed seminars such as: 5-Star Leadership Ethics ~ Bi-Annual Presidents Leadership Conference ~ APSA Best Retention Completion Program
