Senior Vice President Operations, Supply Chain and Emerging Markets

Founded in 2006, privately-held Balsam Brands designs and sells home decor and consumer products directly to customers. Our flagship brand is Balsam Hill(tm), the world's leading retailer of artificial Christmas trees and related holiday decor products. Headquartered in Redwood City, CA, our fast-growing team is based in California, Idaho, the Philippines, and Ireland. With almost a decade of hard-work and award-winning growth under our belts, our experience as a team is unmatched.

I am currently the Senior Vice President of Operations, Supply Chain, and Emerging Markets for Balsam Brands. My experience there has allowed me to continue growing the considerable business acumen developed over 20 years in the professional world after leaving US Military service. I excel at leading teams, building businesses, optimizing supply chains, negotiating contracts, handling customers, clients and partners. I have proven adept at delivering outstanding results throughout the value chain and am highly skilled at developing and refining business operations, growing domestic and international businesses, training/developing team members, or anything in between. I honed my leadership and team building skills in the US Military, in both peacetime and combat operations around the globe. I am at my best working with creative, high performing individuals and organizations to solve challenging problems.
