I’m a forward-thinking CEO advisor with exceptional analytical skills who enjoys creating and executing strategies to drive profitable growth companies. I’m a builder - of people, processes, scale, and shareholder value. I’ve recruited and mentored world class talent by utilizing my communication skills to inspire, challenge and empower my teams. Applying disciplined organizational skills I create integrated systemic processes and develop rigorous and consistent benchmarks and metrics. I utilize critical thinking and intellectual curiosity to make well rounded judgments around scale from an organic and acquisitive standpoint. As a confident, battle tested CFO with extensive breadth, depth and a strong sense of urgency I’ve led winning outcomes as a strategic partner to investors. Originally from Chicago as a CPA with Arthur Andersen and earning a Kellogg School MBA, I migrated to Southern California in a series of progressive financial operations roles with companies including Nestle, Dreyer’s and Thrifty Drugs. For the past 20 years I have served as CFO primarily for Private Equity (PE) backed companies and entrepreneurs ranging in revenues from $50M to $600M. I spent several years as COO managing domestic and international manufacturing and supply chain operations. I’ve also led Human Resources, Risk Management, and Information Technology with successful ERP implementations of Oracle, JD Edwards, Sage and Salesforce. Most recently, I was CFO of the U.S. leading private label manufacturer of vitamins and protein powders, and an Interim CFO to mid and large cap PE firms’ portfolio companies for a Global Consulting firm.Executive Competencies: Strategic Planning, Business Intelligence (BI), Change & Transformation Management, Turnarounds, Process Improvement, Business Development, M&A Diligence / Negotiation / Integration, Financial Reporting, Budgeting, Cost Accounting, Internal Controls, Treasury & Cash Management, Financial Forecasting & Analysis, GAAP
