Helping boards make high-stakes decisions in moments of complexity.

View my approach

Three decades at the intersection of strategy, operations, and governance.

My career spans CEO roles in complex industrial businesses, board service across public and private companies, and advisory engagements with some of the world's most demanding investors and operators.

I bring a practitioner's perspective—not a consultant's—to every engagement. I've sat in the chair, managed the P&L, led the difficult conversations, and delivered results when it mattered most.

Leadership Philosophy

Principles that guide my work.

Clarity Over Complexity

The best strategies are simple enough to execute. I help leaders cut through noise to focus on what actually moves the needle.


Integrity Without Compromise

Standards are constant. I value direct communication, transparency, and alignment between values and actions. Credibility comes from consistency.


Decisions, Not Deliberation

Boards and executives must act decisively. I bring rigor to analysis, but always with an eye toward actionable conclusions.
