Captain (Finance Manager)

Founder of BloomingBound | Author of "100 Viral Quotes & Why I Wrote Them" | Sharer of Thoughts 💭

I'm an entrepreneurial leader with a proven track record in business strategy, finance management, and operations. My professional journey spans from serving as a Captain in the United States Army Reserve to founding multiple startups. 

At Loomenti, BloomingBound, and Givaly, I leveraged my leadership skills to grow businesses from the ground up. Guiding early-stage companies through complex financial decision-making in Higher Echelon and managing a significant operational budget at Fortune 100 companies, I've honed my ability to drive efficiency, cost reduction, and overall organizational growth. 

Today, I am working towards a world where everyone can wake up excited for their work day.

Blame doesn't drive the company forward.

Only support does that.

Weak leaders can tear teams apart with their excuses.

Strong leaders build teams up with their actions.

When things are going wrong, weak leaders will look for someone else to blame.

But strong leaders are looking for the people who will stay in the fight alongside them.
