I’m a degreed mechanical engineer and was a nuclear engineer at Pearl Harbor as my first job out of college.Then a few screenplays, a sunny California detour, and a financial crisis later, I landed in NYC with a new opportunity.
For almost 10 years I helped helped steer the cultural and strategic ship of an NYC based construction company (Omnibuild) as their, among other things, Director of Business Strategy (growing from $12 million to $275 million) and getting us on the Inc. 500list of fastest growing private companies in America, two years in a row (2016 & 2017).
Meanwhile, on the side:
I got a Green MBA. Created a motivational framework called Colipera after getting the Eureka! moment in a sketch comedy writing class in NYC. Wrote The Accountability Effect, In 5 Years You'll Be Wrong, and Borders, Bandits & Baby Wipes
Gave a TED Talk. Co-founded The Nomading Film Festival. Co-founded The Ignition Lab. Created the networking event: Magnet, which continues to connect thousands.
All of these experiences left with me with a mashed concoction of adaptability, accountability, and finish-ability, which happen to be the 3 most important* -ilities in the life’s toolkit.
Currently, I'm doing change management consulting for the "#2 Best Small Company To Work For" in Oregon, 71 & Change.
