Former CEO · Operating Executive

Creating clarity
in complex environments

I step into complex, distressed, or fast-consolidating businesses — as CEO, senior operator, or the person the leadership team calls when the situation has outgrown the playbook — and build the structure that makes performance repeatable. Currently taking a small number of interim and fractional mandates, remote.

Built, led & exited

P&L owned (inside a $400M+ group)
50+
Acquisitions integrated (12 led personally)

What I Do

I work across the full lifecycle of business growth—building, integrating, stabilizing, and preparing for exit—with an operator's perspective and a systems thinker's lens.

Interim & Fractional Leadership

Step into your leadership team to drive transformation, stabilization, or growth—without the commitment of a full-time hire.

M&A Integration

Turn acquisition theses into realized value through disciplined post-deal integration across operations, systems, and culture.

Board & Advisory

Ongoing counsel for founders, CEOs, and boards navigating growth, acquisition, or transition. A thinking partner for the decisions that don't have obvious answers.

Exit Readiness

Prepare your business for sale through the lens of someone who's been on both sides of the table.

CEO
Built, led & exited
$130M
P&L owned (inside a $400M+ group)
50+
Acquisitions integrated (12 led personally)

I've built and run businesses from early-stage startups to a $400M+ group — as CEO, as a senior operations leader, and as the executive the leadership team calls when things get complicated. I led one business through a culture turnaround and a successful exit. I built an M&A integration program that grew from 12 deals I ran personally into a repeatable methodology that delivered 50+. And I've stepped into distressed portfolios where the first job was to figure out what was actually happening before deciding what to do about it.

The thread: I see organizations as systems. I look for the incentives that don't match stated goals, the decision rights that exist on paper but not in practice, the friction that's invisible until someone names it — and I build the structure that resolves them.
