Expertise


Business development support, scalable business system and process infrastructure, marketing, PR, sales.

My personal warrior motto is to "do whatever it takes to get the job done" as I pursue my goals with focus and determination. I get most satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment from the results of my business development pursuits, creating, and learning. Resourcefulness is my most used trait as I find ways to get information I need or go around those who throw walls in front of me to find those who cooperate.

If your company is fast growing, if you look for innovators and leaders, if your environment supports creative thinking - I want to hear about you, get to know you, collaborate with you, be a part of you, and help you prosper.

What does your business need to grow?



In my personal hobby, Improv theater, I am trained to "start anywhere" and "say yes" to any challenge to quickly turn some of these needs into solutions.
