Get Connected

I am a management consultant who loves working with business owners that have a desire to grow their business. After graduating from Indiana University with a degree in Finance and Economics, I started my professional career working for a family owned business in my hometown. My next step was to another family owned company that was looking to expand into Europe so in 1998 I made the move to England.
The ability to develop an effective strategy, to develop leaders, to develop products and to develop markets has underpinned my success at every stage of my professional journey. I enjoy using my business knowledge to provide practical advice, support and coaching to small and medium sized businesses throughout Shropshire. Working together to develop or improve business models that maximise returns from the assets and talent available.
With a young family, I spend most of my free time driving our children to music lessons, cricket matches and school events, but I'm always able to find time to explore the hills and see the sights and towns of Shropshire. I even get in the occasional round of golf at the Shrewsbury GC.
