How I can help
My professional background
My career began with Eastman Kodak. They provided excellent training and a professionally run organization. Since I left Kodak at age 26, I have been self employed in two different industries. I have started two companies and acquired two others. I have made many mistakes along the way and hope to help others avoid those mistakes. I enjoy seeing a company that is well organized, serving it's customers well and providing top compensation for it's employees and owners. For me personally, the biggest satisfaction after selling my first company was knowing that one of the employees there was living a much better life because of their decision to come to work with us. An immigrant that barely spoke English, by the time I sold the company he had worked with us for 10 years, made a top salary and was able to support his wife and children. I am proud of being the one who recognized his abilities and provided him an atmosphere where he could succeed.
How to work with me
What I can offer
There isn't a specific type of problem that interests me. The categories above that I selected are the ones I feel I can offer the most support. Depending upon the situation, sometimes a phone call or email is sufficient. Sometimes a face-to-face meeting is more productive or even an on-site meeting at the business location. It just depends upon the situation and whether or not there are physical things that are part of the discussion.
