When is work not work? When you go into work everyday believing in what you are doing and loving the people you are working with. I've been lucky for that to be true throughout my career. Outstanding P&L results, excellent customer service, and a passionate workforce don't happen by accident. My goal is to come in everyday and see that they do. I'm an accomplished CEO, managing a private equity owned omni-channel business, active in over 50+ countries driving 9-figures of annual revenue. I am equally adept and comfortable operating in a digital or brick & mortar setting. Opportunities to manage ever growing and diverse teams and business categories while driving outstanding P&L results, have shown me to be:• Adaptable, with a very short learning curve when introduced to new industries, concepts, and ways of working.• Quick to develop emotional capital with new peer groups, fostering an environment where I can both listen and learn while also being a trusted thought leader.• A strong Communicator, capable of attaining leadership and cross-functional team buy-in to new ideas and strategies.• Highly effective at synthesizing large data sets, piecing together the small details to quickly understand the “big picture” and from there crafting a strategy for improvement that is my own blend of common sense, process implementation, and forward-thinking creativity.Outside work I love anything outdoors whether that is hiking, canoeing, or fishing. I have a passion for Basketball, travelling, writing, reading, watching good movies, and doing anything with family or friends that is adventurous and leads to lasting memories.
