Tenured leader with operations, project management, and business development experience. An open minded, confident, communication-driven, results oriented, “hands-on” leader. I LOVE people! Without a doubt the best part of life is meeting new people and the role of communication with different cultures that keeps me alive. The love for people has allowed me to develop and execute successful business strategies day in and day out. Clear and concise communication drives safety, successful team building, and customer service platforms. And clearly, without Safety you get NO results!I am a technical guy with unique leadership skills lending to the ability to build successful teams. I am one who can “kick the tires” from top to the bottom. A person who understands and who has worked hard and “plowed” his way up the corporate ladder. I am extremely comfortable in the field and the shop, and I can comfortably wear both a hard hat and a suit. I can read and understand a spreadsheet, not only the financial information, but I can put the best value forward by applying the technical aspects and driving this understanding to the numbers. Working my way up through the ranks, and past personal experiences, lends to the numbers making more sense and thus more value.I am very practical and try to analyze facts for what they are. I have a philosophy that I live by where there is no need to hide details that you cannot control. I have learned that the only thing I can control is the process in which I use to reach my decisions.I have also learned to surround myself with experts in all areas and that true success generally only comes from teams of great people. I understand what it is to work with different cultures and the integration methods needed to merge such cultures. I have taken this knowledge and been able to create and build successful teams of sales, marketing, and operations.Honesty and integrity are core values that I live by. At an early age, and as a child of a minister, I learned that hard work never hurt anyone and that being honest and dependable were who you were. Integrity was engrained in my soul. I can prioritize, plan, multitask, and cope with failures and have safe operation emphasis engrained in all my work endeavor.
