I am a skilled executive with progressive experience and an exceptional record in all phases of sales, marketing, business development, and employee management. My proven leadership and relationship-management abilities have been demonstrated within highly-respected, industry-leading firms.I began my career in the point of sale industry in 1982. As owner of Abacus Business Systems, I spent 22 years focused on a single goal – to grow the businesses profitably through discipline, culture, systems, team-building, and controls. As a result, Abacus flourished. I grew the company to 85 employees in three offices. The company became one the largest POS resellers and the largest Aloha reseller in the United States. In 2013, Abacus was sold to NCR, a world leader in consumer transaction technologies. After selling Abacus, I remained at NCR and served as general manager of NCR's Florida business and general manager of infrastructure and development.Throughout my career, I held additional executive positions and served on several boards. I was president at RCP Enterprises Inc., North American Advisory Board Member for IBM, and an Aloha Reseller Advisory Board Member. I am currently a member of the Executive Committee of Tampa and the Florida Restaurant Association. I am also a regular contributor and speaker for RSPA, the industry association for point of sale technology.I joined Sterling Payment Technologies in 2016 as divisional president, integrated point of sale. I bring to Sterling specific expertise in building and growing businesses through communication, process development, and integrity.
