About

I've spent 20 years inside the pressure chambers that founders and senior leaders operate in every day — PwC, Cognizant, Techstars-backed startups, and founder-led firms from $2M to well past $20M.I'm not advising from a textbook. I'm advising from pattern recognition built in the exact rooms you're sitting in right now.What I've learned across all of it: the gap between vision and execution is always human, never technical. The platform, the process, the org chart — those are scaffolding. The people carrying it are the building.That's the work I do.


What I Do

I work at three distinct levels. Most people find me through one and eventually need all three.

The Founder Operating System
For the founder whose business can't scale past them
A 90-day operational and leadership engagement for founders who built something real and became the ceiling of it. We fix the delivery infrastructure and the person running it — simultaneously, because one without the other doesn't hold.Month 1: Forensic audit.
A prioritized Correction Roadmap ranked by margin impact.
Month 2:
I coach your internal ops person through execution. One session per week from you.
Month 3: Operations transfer.
I shift to working directly with you on delegation, identity, and what this next stage of growth requires from you as a leader.
You exit with a business that runs without you.
Investment: $18,000–$24,000 flat. 90 days. Defined exit.


Executive Coaching
For the leader who has built something real and quietly lost the thread
The revenue is real. The title is real. The team respects you. And something is quietly, persistently wrong.Certified Professional Coach since 2007. I work with founders and senior leaders at genuine inflection points — burnout, identity drift, business plateaus, post-crisis reconstruction. The hard work of building a life that actually matches the ambition that got you here.Not therapy. Not motivational content. Honest work with someone who won't lie to you.


Foundry & Fire Studio™
For the man beneath the founder
Some men reach a point where the business problem and the leadership problem have both been addressed — and something deeper is still unresolved. A sense that the life being lived doesn't fully match the life that was supposed to be. An ambition that achieved everything it aimed at and still came up empty.That's not a coaching problem. That's a formation problem.Foundry & Fire Studio™ is a men's formation community built at the intersection of faith, identity, and intentional becoming. It is not a program you purchase and consume. It is a container — in-person in the Central Florida Area and in virtual cohorts nationally — where men do the serious work of figuring out who they are supposed to be now, and becoming that person with accountability, honesty, and faith as the foundation.The framework is SEEDos™: Serve. Elevate. Evangelize. Disciple. A progression designed not for performance, but for transformation.This is the work that sits beneath everything else. The man who gets this right finds that the business and the leadership tend to follow.→ Learn more and inquire: [email protected]


Why These Three

Most advisors work at one level and call it enough.The Founder Operating System fixes the infrastructure. Executive Coaching fixes the leader. Foundry & Fire Studio™ forms the man. These are not the same problem — but they are often carried by the same person simultaneously.Some men need one. Some need all three. Either way, the work begins with an honest conversation.


Career

A 20-year record of going into complex situations and leaving things better than I found them.PwC — Director, Cloud & Digital
Led enterprise-scale digital transformations for F500 clients. Bridged the gap between Big Consulting strategy and execution that holds up under real operational conditions.
Cognizant — Global Engagement Partner
Managed multi-million-dollar global delivery portfolios across distributed teams. Built the pattern recognition that informs everything I do with founders today.
Earn & Learn — Fractional COO (Techstars '25)
Designed the operational infrastructure for a high-growth EdTech startup preparing for Series A scale. Translated visionary strategy into executable workflows.
ForceIQ (acquired by Huron) — Practice Director (First)
Built the Salesforce consulting practice from zero — hiring, methodology, delivery infrastructure, and profitability discipline. The practice I built was part of what made the Huron acquisition possible.
Qvest.US — Salesforce Practice Lead (First)
Joined as the company's first Salesforce practice lead. Established the methodology, won the first significant clients, built the foundation correctly.
Xceede Solutions — Director of Consulting Services (First)
Joined as the first Director of Consulting Services. Worked alongside the founder to build the delivery infrastructure and establish the operational foundation for a growing practice.
Fiske Guide to Colleges — Managing Editor
1995–2015 · 20 years
Helped lead one of the most trusted college guidance publications in the country for two decades. Taught me one thing above everything else: the clearest, most useful guidance is always the most honest — not the most polished, not the most comprehensive, but the most direct.
That principle has never left the building.


Speaking

I speak to founder audiences, executive leadership groups, and professional communities on operational leadership, the founder bottleneck, and the hard intersection of business performance and personal identity.Topics include:

  • You Are the Ceiling — Why the most capable founders become the biggest obstacle to their own growth, and the specific mechanics of getting out

  • The Gap Is Always Human — Twenty years of pattern recognition on why transformations fail and what actually fixes them

  • The Founder's Identity Problem — The leadership challenge no one talks about: who you're supposed to be when the business no longer needs you in every room
