With over 25 years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of leading under-performing and mature businesses through challenging transitions, delivering significant revenue and profit growth without capital investment. In roles such as Senior Vice President at National Carwash Solutions and CDK Global, as well as my leadership at ADP Dealer Services, I’ve been fortunate to work with incredible teams and achieve key results in M&A integration, operational execution, and business development. My passion is creating sustainable change, fostering employee engagement, and mentoring the next generation of leaders. I’m always open to discussing new opportunities, learning, and contributing to business growth and innovation. Feel free to connect if you’d like to exchange ideas or explore future collaborations!
