QUALIFICATIONS OVERVIEW

Here is a four-point synopsis of my strongest abilities.

1. Exemplary P&L growth and performance (taking ventures from zero to eight or nine figure top line revenues with double digit margins). After building consensus and clearly defining the objectives, resources and timetable in a business plan, I deliver results via personal resolve, teamwork and highly polished execution skills.
2. Broad and highly polished business acumen of the entire management spectrum including operations, distribution, engineering, finance, technology, sales and marketing. I'm a "Swiss Army Knife" with 25+ years of hands-on experience complementing a plethora of sound theory. I bring high energy, determination and a strict adherence to a line from the movie Apollo 13: "Failure is not an option; not on my watch."
3. My heritage of utilizing intelligence, common sense, pragmatism and initiative to solve business problems, refine operations, develop new products/markets and maximize profits. This history spans a multi-billion dollar international conglomerate to several entrepreneurial successes to my fostering of, and P&L accountability for, innovative strategic business units.
4. I’m a proven leader with exemplary core values, a classical education and diverse experience. My engineering, marketing and entrepreneurial background permit me to uncover superior opportunities and operate autonomously until sufficient revenue and margin are available to scale my individual achievements into a highly cohesive and productive team effort.
