Having a growth and entrepreneurial mindset has been the gift that keeps on giving throughout the many ventures I've undertaken in my career. That approach has helped me earn my real world MBA. Whether it’s work, sports, or every day life the people around me say I’m extremely competent, cool, and collected, but they know there is a serious competitive fire inside of me. I love pushing people, teams and organizations to grow and come out the other side of an opportunities, challenges, or just a regular day better than when they started.And I love making deals. Deals that make the lives of everyone involved better because they ultimately forge strong relationships and more deals!I've been in the Startup space - BLive Music App and Social NetworkI've been in Construction - Over $500 Million in projects directly under my beltI've been a part of immense company growth - $3M to $320M in revenue and 1,400 employeesI've been in Private Equity - Investments Selection and ValuationI've been fortunate to pursue and succeed in a variety of roles. Originally they relied on my technical intelligence, but once I discovered my passion and acumen for business, strategy, and relationship building I've been able to advance and have a lot of fun being creative in doing what I do. After all, Albert Einstein once said “Creativity is intelligence having fun”. How can one argue with that.
