I am a Financial Leader known for a continuous improvement focus and a passion for the entrepreneurial spirit. A successful lawyer early in my career, I discovered a natural affinity for data analysis, problem solving and process improvement while working with corporate legal clients. I pivoted to finance and operations roles leading to my current CFO position with Barry Bagels Franchise Holdings. Living and working in Greater Toledo, I enjoy engaging in local events and activities, including volunteer opportunities. I am personally passionate about fitness and recreational engagement for myself and my family. “Dad” is my favorite title and I enjoy extra-curricular activities such as coaching youth basketball.
