Bio

As an accomplished leader with 25 years of experience driving innovation and growth in diverse industries, I am constantly seeking new challenges and opportunities to make an impact. With a background in insurance, telecommunications, and agriculture, I have a unique skillset and perspective that allows me to approach problems with creativity and adaptability.

I have a passion for building and leading successful teams, and have a track record of transforming organizations through agile-based software development processes and comprehensive corporate prioritization and resource allocation. I am an entrepreneur at heart, having founded and built a successful mass text messaging service, and currently leading a firm dedicated to bringing cutting-edge artificial intelligence solutions to the specialty crop industry.

I am an experienced speaker and have shared my insights at over 15 public talks on business topics. I am also a dedicated community leader, serving in various roles to support small businesses and my home state's industries.

When I'm not pushing boundaries in my professional life, you can find me pushing my limits as an avid mountain bike racer and competitor in over 150 sanctioned events, including 5 national championship events.
