About the owner
Growing up in the mountains of West Virginia made me into the man I am today. There, I learned how to love people, have conversations to pass time, work hard, serve others, and survive in the wild. Working at the world renowned Greenbrier Resort in the Service Quality and Training department taught me how to serve both fellow employees and customers. I love God and my country and in service to both I enlisted in the United States Marine Corps in 2011. After being honorably discharged in 2016 I began my career in the manufacturing industry at a Fortune 500 defense manufacturing corporation where I have been a Manufacturing General Manager, Production Control Manager, and Global Supply Chain Operations Manager.
My desire is to help companies create amazing work environments for their employees which in turn will create much more value for those companies. This could come in the form of better working conditions with more streamlined processes or it may come through management training that leads managers to serve their teams. I want to leverage my previous successes to make plans for your future ones.
I love helping people achieve their own personal vision of success. Whether this is becoming owner of your own company, working as a park ranger, becoming a teacher, or designing the next fuel cell, I want to help you define your career or life goal and create a pathway to get you there. We can use your values, interests, and skills to hone in on a career that fits you personally, rather than you trying to fit yourself into a career.
To my fellow West Virginians: I am looking to work with individuals and companies from Portland, Oregon to Portland, Maine - but my heart is still in the mountains of West Virginia. If you currently reside in the Mountain State or if you serve the people of West Virginia by owning a business or contributing to the economy please email me to set up a time for us to discuss a way we can work together for the good of West Virginia and West Virginians.
