I am a growth-oriented executive with 20+ years of experience leading retailers, with a focus on business development and expansion. Currently, I serve as the Chief Executive Officer of Eyemart Express, where I am bringing our unmatched optical expertise, deep and genuine connections to the local communities we serve, and customer convenience to new frontiers. Before joining Eyemart, I was the CFO and then the COO and President of Petco, where I oversaw supply chain, real estate & construction, and the pet services and veterinary care business areas. I led the turnaround of the grooming business, the launch and scaling of the in-store vet hospital business, and the creation of a new Petco farm and feed store format targeting expansion in small town/rural communities. Before Petco, I led finance teams at GNC and Abercrombie & Fitch. Interests: running, hiking, history books, family time (including my wife, four kids & two dogs).
