I am a Servant Leader with 25+ years of experience in leading Operations Management and Organizational Excellence and am at my best working with people, processes, and experiential learning to improve organizations and communities by identifying, elevating, and developing value in others.

I am an operational executive and leader who builds and leads high performing teams through mutual trust, respect, and a commitment to excellence; inspires through passion; and equally commits to the team and mission.

I approach operations and projects with the end in mind, develop a targeted plan, and ensure constant evaluation of progress, successes, and opportunity to improve.  I strive to create a stable professional environment allowing team members to operate in a standardized manner with enough flexibility for innovative solutions. 

My passion is to inspire others, to teach, and to serve.  Finding, joining, empowering, and enabling the talents, abilities, and passions of others is a force multiplier for operations and is the driving force in my work.  It is what I get out of bed for in the morning.

Authenticity and transparency are hallmarks of my leadership, teaming, and communication style.  My mission is to understand the questions being asked two levels beyond the current challenge and what is keeping my teammates and customers up at night.  These are my measures and metrics. 

I have one mode when joining a team…all in!  There is no job that is too big or too small.  I am a doer and forcing function and continually seek opportunities to influence the big picture, roll up my sleeves, and get to work.
