Over 20 years of upstream industry experience with a strong background in operationsmanagement, product development, business development and sales along with technical expertise in multiple disciplines. Having robust leadership skills, business development acumen and vision allowed me to create two successful, multi-million dollar businesses for two separate entities. Through the identification of growth opportunities, devising of regional strategic plans and development of strong customer relationships, I was able to accelerate market traction within a sphere of existing competing technologies. Managing operations globally entailed numerous duties including organizational development, finances, sales, marketing, personnel management, logistics, training/mentoring, asset management, inventory management, product development and technical advisory as well as becoming versed in the cultural aspects of numerous geographical locations. Possessing a diverse, technical and management skillset coupled with drive, passion and sound decision-making has been the key to my success.Attended Rice University – Jones School of Business in the Accelerated Development Program (ADP) / Executive Education for executive level management progression.
