Partnering for Progress

Throughout my journey, I've tried my hand at many new challenges, but the most common professional roles have involved a complementary three-part focus on entrepreneurship and business development, strategy formation and execution, and risk and relationship management.  Mostly I’ve worked to help clients solve difficult problems, build strategic new relationships, and overcome real-world crisis scenarios across various industries and cultural landscapes.  I firmly believe that in every crisis lies an opportunity for adaptation and transformation.

Some of my earliest achievements involved the creation of commercial and social diplomacy initiatives. Helping to co-create programs like the Mansfield Pacific Retreats at the University of Montana and the Young Leaders Forum at the National Committee on US China Relations were meaningful early moments in my career. I also accumulated decades of strategic development experience in hospitality, facilities management, and risk management and crisis response consulting.  For most of the past twenty years I’ve worked for the world’s top three risk management and security consultancies to help Fortune 500 companies navigate existential business challenges in some of the world's most dynamic markets. 

Having contributed to multiple partnerships, acquisitions, and strategic turnaround projects throughout my career, I'm now excited to work with like-minded entrepreneurs to help bring realistic and impactful new moonshot ideas to life.  Having repatriated to Montana in 2022, I look forward to beginning a new chapter in life.  I intend to work with motivated community leaders to co-create impactful entrepreneurial endeavors with the potential to benefit Montana and the wider world.
