About Me

I began my professional journey as a mechanical engineer in an oil refinery, trading the classroom for steel-toe boots and hard hats. This hands-on experience exposed me to a diverse range of colleagues, from skilled craftspeople to PhDs, as we tackled real-world challenges in a fast-paced environment. At the age of 22, I embraced my first leadership role, leading a maintenance crew during night shifts.

Driven by a passion for leadership, I pursued an MBA at the University of Chicago to transition into management roles. Over the past decade, I've held positions spanning manufacturing, inventory management, and transportation, overseeing budgets and teams with P&L responsibilities of up to $70M per year and leading teams of up to 50 individuals.

My decision to focus on buying a company in Middle Tennessee is deeply personal. Having relocated here with my family three years ago, we've fallen in love with the area and are committed to establishing roots. I'm convinced that the same factors that drew us here—vibrant community, growing opportunities—will continue to attract others, and I'm eager to invest in our local economy.

With a background rooted in problem-solving, leadership, and strategic thinking, I'm eager to take the next step in my journey by acquiring a small business in Middle Tennessee. I believe in the potential of local enterprises to thrive, and I'm excited about the opportunity to leverage my skills and experience to nurture growth and success in partnership with a like-minded business owner.
