I’m an Engineer-turned-business researcher and organizational leader. I’m equally at home looking at the big picture and setting the overarching strategy, or digging into the fine details to analyze complex challenges and drive improvements.

01 · What I do
How I add value.
The same approach for different problems: Breaking down complex challenges into base components, and re-engineering them into solutions that work the first time, and every time.
A·01
Strategy & Leadership
Setting direction, aligning stakeholders, and negotiating mutually-beneficial outcomes.
B·02
Program and Project Management
Running complex, global programs on time, on scope, and on-budget.
C·03
Applied Research & Analytics
Rigorous, evidence-driven approach to solving real-world problems.
D·04
Process and Standard Improvement
Increasing the thoroughness and efficiency of the value chain.
02 · How I’m wired
Comfortable at both altitudes.
Seeing the trees without losing sight of the forest.
Strategy and the fine print
Today’s landscape is more complex than ever. Assessing the global market landscape and setting strategy based on that information is second nature.
A genuinely fast study
Getting up to speed faster than most, for a deep understanding of the fine details, whether that be for the product, program, process, or people in an organization.
03 · The story
From a small farm in Michigan
From a small farm in Michigan
to global organizations.
I grew up repairing farm machinery and restoring classic tractors on a small family farm in Romeo, Michigan. I never lost the approach of understanding how something works, then making it better. These days, I work on organizations instead of engines.
