I am an entrepreneurial leader and values-driven executive igniting performance with passion and strategy to achieve breakthrough results. By blending measured risk taking and test-and-learn practices with putting the consumer first I find creative ways to grow businesses. Focused on talent, team dynamics and long-term value creation, I am willing to invest where others won’t, to improve core fundamentals of business to ensure long-term sustainable profit. I have pushed innovation across product development to financial rigor to engineering while balancing the internal and external priorities. For me, it starts with time. It’s such a precious thing. “The clock of life is wound but once,” my Dad’s bumper sticker read when I was a kid and that notion of a fleeting life has never left me. While I do not take my time or myself too seriously, I do choose what I work on and who I work with very carefully. After trying to be a good husband and dad (my wife Tricia and my 3 kids are the judge and jury on that one), leading people while building a company is what I love to do – how I want to spend my time. Building a business is filled with so many good things in life: teamwork, challenge, growth, fun, etc…all things that are important to me.
