With a career spanning over 52 interim and transitional leadership roles (including positions in manufacturing, banking, real estate development, nutraceuticals, regulatory compliance, hospitality, insurance, law, and accounting industries), I've guided organizations of all sizes—from small departments to enterprises with over 500 employees—to unprecedented growth. I bring proven business and financial leadership expertise and a track record of being a consistent catalyst for record-breaking performance. I balance using numbers and more to achieve transformative growth, mentor and inspire teams, and inspire and lead innovation that continuously elevates companies to new heights.My leadership success is rooted in my ability to bridge the technical and the interpersonal realms. My technical competencies include predictive analytics, financial planning, statistics, data mining, programming, and artificial intelligence—skills that drive data-informed, strategic decision-making. On the human side, I bring a dynamic charisma, a deep empathy for team and stakeholder needs, and a talent for articulating a vision that resonates across all levels of an organization. This blend of hard and soft skills enables me to build cohesive, cross-functional teams that rally around shared goals, producing transformative outcomes and sustained buy-in from diverse stakeholders, including shareholders, private equity investors, regulators, communities, and government entities.Academically, I’ve pursued excellence with a Bachelor of Arts in Finance from the University of Utah, a Juris Doctor from Taft Law School, and Master of Laws coursework in Taxation from the Washington Institute. I also hold a PhD in Business Administration with Distinction, specializing in Finance and with an emphasis in Accounting, from Capella University—graduating with a perfect 4.0 GPA and earning a spot on the President’s List. My dedication to leadership is reflected in memberships such as the National Society of Leadership and Success (Sigma Alpha Pi) and the Delta Mu Delta International Honor Society in Business (Xi Delta Chapter).Community impact is central to my ethos, most notably demonstrated by my role as Chairman of the Board of Directors at Mountain America Credit Union, where I played a key part in a merger that resulted in the 10th largest credit union in the U.S., now with assets exceeding $17 billion. I am a transformative force dedicated to fostering unparalleled collaboration and growth for team members, students, peers, businesses, and communities alike.
