About me

I'm a former operations executive turned business consultant with a 15-year track record of helping companies scale profitably. Before launching my own consultancy, I served as COO of a logistics company that grew from $12M to $85M in revenue under my operational leadership. I'm a certified management accountant (CMA), hold an MBA from Indiana University's Kelley School of Business, and am a certified Six Sigma Black Belt. I've worked with over 40 companies across manufacturing, professional services, e-commerce, and SaaS. I'm particularly known for diagnosing the 'frozen middle' problem—where capable managers become bottlenecks because nobody has taught them to delegate, prioritize, or lead at the next level. I don't believe in generic business advice, because I've seen brilliant consultants give brilliant advice that was completely wrong for the specific company. Everything I do is grounded in financial analysis and operational data, not business book summaries. Show less

You will get an honest, data-driven diagnosis of what's actually limiting your growth. Not the symptoms you see on the surface, but the operational root causes that keep your business stuck. We'll work on building the financial visibility to make decisions with confidence, not gut feel. I help you design scalable systems and processes, recruit and develop leadership capacity, and create the strategic clarity that aligns your team. Concrete outcomes my clients see include: 20-40% profit margin improvements within 12 months, reduced owner dependence (so you can actually take a week off), and growth without the chaos. I typically work with companies between $2M and $30M in revenue who are past the startup phase but struggling with the complexity of scale. Engagements are structured around specific business challenges with measurable financial outcomes. Show less
