Six core strengths stand out in my business experience to help you problem solve and grow, aside from being an all-around helpful guy that can move your team forward.

Getting it done. Rapid, agile, iterative. Focused on moving forward with corrective modulation to achieve goals established by stakeholders.

Good business sense

At the end of the day, teams need leaders with the ability to make good decisions. Never rash by the heat of the moment, nor aloof by inaction, rather we all want to work with people who promote good spirits and progress the team further toward the goal. From within large corporations to family businesses, I have honed my skills in project management, financial analysis, and creative process improvement to allocate resources effectively.

UX and Agile

User experience design has become a fascination, similar to when I first encountered Agile. The thought-leaders in these fields are my continuing education, inspiring new methods and fostering a community of improvement in software development.

Balance

Majoring in both Mathematics and English years ago served to develop both halves of the brain, allowing me to excel at both analytical and creative functions. Balance is also visible in my temperament: patient when need be, motivated for immediate action when the situation calls for it.

Teams

Much enjoyable work occurs when all the pieces come together - and helping make that happen with a large group of people is particularly rewarding. Though not a programmer, I work to stay half-fluent in their languages to communicate clear requirements. To connect with stakeholder objectives, I think in terms of the bottom line and market share. I dive into data analysis to gain traction to the shifting points of consumer access, and encourage the best out of each member in self-organizing teams to achieve valuable working products. Outside of work, I tutor elementary children in a reading program and assist my wife in leading a healthy-eating organization because participating in one's local community is just another way of joining a big and important team.
