I am a passionate leader, developer of people, change agent and family man. I value honesty, transparency, collaboration, critical thought and execution. I never waiver when it comes to doing the right thing.I have extensive experience in the aerospace and defense industry and held broad leadership roles while at Boeing including commercial segment Controller and head of Financial Planning & Investor Relations, defense divisional CFO, commercial services joint venture chairman and Corporate Business Transformation CFO. My range of business experience includes on-site supplier management, major industrial production, product development, post-delivery and fleet support, engineering, data analytics and business development. I have also had the privilege of leading global teams and working with non-U.S. and U.S. customers and suppliers (including a variety of branches of the US Government). My diverse experience makes me successful in roles requiring adaptability, openness to different perspectives, broad business knowledge, the ability to pull people together and a trust in the team. I am at my best as a trusted partner driving all aspects of the business while developing cross-functional relationships and partnering. I am passionate about developing people. I am dedicated to mentoring, and I believe the team succeeds when everyone understands how to add the most value to the business and how to get the most enjoyment out of work. I have been sought out my entire career for mentorship and advocacy for early-, mid- and senior-level employees and I draw a great deal of job satisfaction in seeing others succeed. Ethical standards, company culture and core values are paramount to any workplace. Equally important is the product the company delivers. When you’re proud and excited about what you make it’s easier to love what you do.
