What I Do
Where Strategy Meets Execution
I enjoy working at the intersection of business, creativity and execution. I am usually most valuable when a company has an opportunity, challenge or idea that needs someone who can look at the whole picture and connect the pieces.
Business Development
Building partnerships, opening doors, developing new revenue opportunities and connecting businesses with the right people, markets and strategies.
Creative Marketing
Developing ideas, positioning, campaigns, messaging and unconventional strategies designed to get attention and create action.
Strategy
Helping companies look beyond the immediate problem and identify the larger opportunity.
Sales & Growth
Creating practical strategies around sales, customer acquisition, retention, partnerships and revenue growth.
Operations & Customer Experience
Understanding how sales, technology, process, people and customer experience work together inside a business.
Technology & Innovation
Helping companies understand where technology, automation and AI can genuinely improve a business rather than simply adding more software.
Automotive
Deep Automotive Experience. Broader Business Perspective.
I understand the automotive ecosystem from the inside — dealership operations, used vehicles, inventory, sales, marketing, vendors, software, technology, customer experience and dealer relationships.
My experience includes working with and serving thousands of independent and franchise dealers, developing automotive technology, advising dealerships and vendors, and helping companies understand how dealers actually operate.
The same principles — business development, positioning, customer experience, sales, partnerships, operations and execution — apply across industries.
