My Story: Beyond the Milestones

On the surface, my story might look familiar. I spent 42 years with two major Fortune 500 companies, excelling in both operational and sales leadership roles.

​

If numbers are your thing, here are a few that help paint the picture: I’ve led teams of up to 350 people, managed a $60 million P&L, and was responsible for $500 million in client partnerships—ensuring they were delighted, growing, and renewing. I’ve navigated long labor walkouts, guided major account start-ups and turnarounds, and earned multiple sales awards along the way.

​

But those numbers and milestones aren’t my story. They’re simply the stepping stones I balanced on while walking through life. My journey isn’t defined by what I’ve done: It’s defined by who I am and continue to become.

Leadership Through Service

For me, leadership is about mindfulness, situational awareness, and personal growth. It’s about being a servant leader—showing up for people, not standing above them. Those who’ve worked with me know that serving others has always been at the center of everything I do.

​

Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of leading and supporting people at every level—from housekeepers to hospital vice presidents. My clients have included healthcare C-suite executives, university provosts, procurement leaders, and operational vice presidents. I’ve always preferred being in the business, not just over it. I engage personally, treat everyone with respect, thank people for their contributions, and consistently ask, “How can I support you?”

​

I didn’t start out that way. I’ll be the first to admit that my early career was a steep learning journey—one shaped by mentors who coached me, lifted me through failure, and cheered me forward. That humility remains at the core of who I am today.

​

Growth and Trust

I’m a lifelong learner. I continue to sharpen my skills through courses, books, podcasts, and meaningful conversations. I believe growth is a journey, not a destination. As a coach and teacher, I value personal discovery over being “talked at.” I’ve learned that people grow best through a blend of experience, information, and guidance—and that’s how I help teams and organizations become stronger.

 

Above all, I strive to be someone people can trust. When I commit to something, I deliver—no matter what it takes.​​

My wife and I live in Pennsylvania and are proud parents of two grown daughters, who occupy the biggest space in my heart and mind. I love spending time with my family (including our pets), traveling, swimming in the ocean or my pool, reading, walking, cooking, and watching movies. A lifelong golf enthusiast since my caddie days on Long Island at 15, I play whenever my schedule allows—which, I’ll admit with a grin, isn’t nearly often enough.
