Every organization has problems. The question is whether they drain profits and burn out talent, or whether they become opportunities for growth. That’s where I come in. I’ve spent 30+ years in engineering, leadership, and problem-solving — helping organizations recover tens of millions of dollars by solving problems at the root instead of firefighting symptoms.

​

Along the way, I became a Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt, a Shainin Red X Journeyman, and a two-time TEDx speaker. I’ve also had the privilege of serving as a two-time TEDx Speaker Coach, helping others share ideas worth spreading on stage. Those experiences gave me a front-row seat to what really makes ideas stick: not just facts and frameworks, but humor, humanity, and a clear path forward.

I don’t believe learning should feel like a trip to the dentist. My training and workshops are packed with practical lessons participants can put to work the very next day — but they’re also fun, interactive, and engaging. Humor is one of my favorite teaching tools. After all, people remember the stories that made them laugh and lean in, not the 80-slide PowerPoint that made them check their phones.
