Leading Operations and Supply Chain organizations are my career passion. Currently, I am an Operating Partner with KLH Capital, a mid level Private Equity firm, and am responsible for directing the operations of our companies across the portfolio. Previously, I have had the pleasure of working with dynamic teams while holding leadership roles with Private Equity backed companies such as; Sterling Site Access Solutions (Manufactured Access Matting), FloWorks International (PVF Distribution), Express Courier (Same Day Logistics), SVP Worldwide (Singer,Viking,Pfaff Sewing Machines), Formica Corporation (Building Materials), SI Corporation (textiles), Owens Corning (Glass Composites) and Duracell USA (CPG). My scope of responsibility has delivered Cost Reductions, Inventory Healthiness and Improved Service in the areas of procurement/sourcing, distribution and transportation, sales and operations planning, customer service, ERP implementations, lean manufacturing/enterprise, working capital healthiness, private equity turnarounds, both internationally and domestically. Determining a company’s operational weaknesses and then implementing lean, sustainable solutions that drive enterprise wide benefits, is the value that I bring to an organization. My approach involves building cross functional team responsiveness, while balancing that with a true common sense focus… this ultimately enables the entire enterprise to have a clear line of site to both strategic goals and tactical deliverables.Specialties: Customer Service, Manufacturing, Warehouse Management, Sales and Operations Planning, Distribution/ Network Optimization, Global Procurement and Sourcing, Working Capital Management, Systems Integration, Service Metrics/ KPI Development, Lean Enterprise Implementation, Change Management, Research and Development, Quality, P&L Management, Cost Reduction and Continuous Improvement Programs
