Personal Profile

I've been a recognized as a pioneer in many contexts. While serving as the Franchisor Area Sales Manager, I was elected President of the Utah State Tire Dealers and Retreaders Association, where I worked directly with State Legislators and government agencies and health department officials to coordinate a tire recycling program for the entire state.

Throughout my career, Ive had the privilege of working with management teams and owners in numerous industries on multi-million dollar projects, including the refurbishment of jet aircraft to be resold on a secondary market, overseeing the new product launch of an energy drink for former NFL quarterback, Steve Young and co-facilitating all financing for a large project in Las Vegas by securing Magic Johnsons name recognition to the project. Such contacts became my collective creative, business and systemic influences that formed my attitudes and accomplishments in a myriad of successful business roles.

Ive always been acknowledged for having vision and am typically chosen for leadership roles for this reason. For example, in my most recent experience, I was recognized for my ability to identify business opportunities and cost savings, which had previously been missed by internal auditors.

As a leader, I encourage people to maintain their independent spirit while striving for team unity. In my mind, the stability and the relationships I bring with me are unique, but my passion for developing process and operational improvement programs is something that I feel sets me apart in my field. However, I feel that leadership is only as valuable as its ability to persevere and grow in the toughest of times, which is a facet of my experience of which I am most proud.
