Executive Overview

Experience Summary • Over 30 years of proven business leadership in the hospitality and retail sectors with multiple startup venture successes. • A diverse skill set obtained from working on “all sides” of the business, from retail-side operations to corporate support and in a commercial supplier capacity. I am conversant and proficient in almost all aspects of running a business, including balance sheet and P&L accountability. I am equally at home in the field or in the boardroom with a diverse but complementary skillset. • I “talk tech” fluently but have the unique ability to put complex technical vision into value propositions and business terms that my end-users, stakeholders, customers and colleagues embrace and understand. Leadership Highlights • I have held executive leadership positions for technology, operations, supply chain/logistics, product management and delivery. • I have a proven track record of business leadership in the commercial marketplace and have led or co-led organizations from startup phase through investment and equity events. • I possess strong organizational and leadership skills to manage global resources as well as coordinate inter- and intra-company initiatives. Leadership of cross-functional teams has been my specialty.
