Leading change, strengthening operations and positioning organizations for success in evolving industries has been the focus of my career. Making organizations better is what most motivates me. ✔Throughout my career, I’ve been asked to lead strategic initiatives based on my willingness to tackle the most complex challenges. I often had to build skills in new areas, engage with new people and quickly establish myself as a credible leader. I was able to move things forward because I could quickly grasp the magnitude of what needed to be done and motivate others to action around a common cause. ✔ My background is diverse with an emphasis on technology-based industries and companies; and includes both depth and breadth in manufacturing, global supply chain and operations. As a direct leader or advisor, I can help scale and improve manufacturing operations, facilitate turnarounds, build infrastructure and launch new products. Initiatives I’ve led in the past have saved millions in costs, increased capacity and global footprint, delivered sustainable revenue and ensured long-term competitiveness.✔ Globally minded and culturally astute, I’m comfortable conducting business anywhere in the world as I’ve worked with teams and alliances in over 30 countries. When called to lead projects and change initiatives, I look for global talent to build the teams. That approach led to more creative solutions and effective execution of projects with impact in the U.S., Asia, Europe, North and South America.✔ Demonstrated success in medical diagnostics, medical devices, pharmaceuticals, computer hardware and defense electronics. ✔ Outside of work, I’ve led and helped manage public school boards, sports organizations and HOAs.
