On the combat field, life and death can hinge on a single, quick decision. I made those decisions numerous times during my deployments while in the U.S. Army and even translated my invaluable experience into customized training programs for U.S. military and law enforcement agencies in North America. The extensive experience gained through worldwide deployments and critical medical operations management of a 500-person team during combat prompted me to explore solutions that could save lives under the harshest conditions. Most recently, I have applied my dynamic leadership, straightforward communication style, and continual push to move forward to building a medically innovative product that preserves the temperature of blood for use in combat and other extreme conditions. The multi-vertical growth opportunities are endless, and I have excelled in helping to advance the concept from ideation to manufacture and purchase by early adopters such as the U.S. Department of Defense. I like to keep moving forward, so navigating challenges and testing limits are innate to me. A nimble relationship-builder, I thrive in collaborative environments requiring clear-cut decision-making, strong financial acumen, and actionable strategic planning to drive corporate goal achievement. This ranges from product development and cash flow management to strategic marketing positioning and prospective corporate acquisitions. Cementing my well-honed leadership skills is my experience as Chairman of the Board of Delta Development Team (DDT), where I’ve spearheaded and advanced discussions about corporate growth, profitability, and multiyear goals. Bonus fact: I appeared in the Discovery Channel’s 2003 documentary, “America’s Secret Soldiers.”
