The focus of my offerings center around Leadership, Coaching, & Advising, something that I have been doing over the last 20+ years. Below is a little more information about these services.
Leadership: The focus is to change the idea of managing individuals to leading them through example & inspiration.
“Great leaders see greatness in others.”
– Jon Gordon
Coaching: The active participation in work through shadowing & working actively to work on making you the best.
“All truly great thoughts are conceived by walking.”
– Friedrich Nietzsche
Advising: The idea is to actively listen & be an independent sparring partner who can provide suggestions & recommendations.
“There is no greatness where there is no simplicity, goodness and truth.”
– Leo Tolstoy
Here are the methods that I practice during my Leadership, Coaching, & Advising work (this is not an exhaustive list):
– Agility through Scrum, Kanban, & Scaling

I started my journey 20+ years ago with an initial focus on Finance. This quickly changed to a fascination with Leadership, Product Management, Project Management, Business Analysis, & QA. Over the years I have developed skills in leadership, coaching, & advising while building product, teams, & companies. I have worked with a variety of companies that have ranged from start-ups to large-sized companies such as OptioPay, PayPal, Blackboard, Merrill Lynch, & Reuters.
Having worked at such a variety of companies & domains over the years has allowed me to experiencing building teams & product from linear (waterfall) methodology to an incremental one (Agility). What I realized was that I saw plenty of things that I could share.
On my educational side, I focused on Finance (hedging strategies), Philosophy, & Psychology. I polished this off with an MBA that had International & Project Management influences.
