K.I.S.S. — Keep It Simple. Solve the Problem.
30+ years of experience turning complex business challenges into practical, measurable results.
I’ve spent more than three decades building businesses, developing markets, leading teams and solving complex operational and commercial challenges. My experience spans sales, business development, operations, procurement, marketing and the wine industry—from executive leadership and manufacturing to owning and operating my own businesses.
Today, I bring that broad perspective to organizations that need experienced leadership, strategic business development or hands-on help solving a specific business challenge.
