As a seasoned executive and successful entrepreneur, my journey has been anything but conventional. With a foundation in economics and an MBA in strategy and finance, I've navigated diverse roles - from Hewlett Packard to leading as COO at Grande Cheese Company. My passion for strategic thinking and leadership led me to the world of business ownership and franchising, where I've thrived in understanding business development. That passion has led to current ventures in consulting where I build on that success to help new entrepreneurs start the dream of ownership and small to mid-sized companies scale, grow, and flourish.Looking back, my executive experiences strengthened my expertise in strategic management, execution, and leadership, while my experience in owning 8 Premier Martial Arts locations, and later selling them, has been a testament to my ability to pivot and succeed in competitive markets. My journey has honed my skills in finance, strategy, HR, and operations, giving me the tools to build a successful business many times over. I look forward to helping each client through this same process, no matter what stage they are in.My approach is hands-on and tailored. I use data and analysis to create strategies to help businesses execute and lead effectively. I also assist individuals match franchise and business models to their unique interests, skills, and goals and achieve entrepreneurship dreams. From initial acquisition through startup and growth, and then providing comprehensive consulting across strategy, finance, sales, marketing, HR, and long-term growth, I'm there every step of the way.Let's connect and explore the possibilities!
