Summary
Companies today are looking for well rounded leaders because of the diverse and complex situations that occur every day in business. I have a career full of accomplishments that will provider your company with just such a person. Starting as young freshly minted Army Officer I learned the value of being an important part of the team. But, as a salesman and sales manager I’ve learned the value of being self-directed. Finally, as the Chair of a growing $65 million community organization I’ve learned the values of top level leadership in order to keep an organization focused.
