• Design of comprehensive audit, accounting, and finance manuals to standardize practices, streamline workflow, and improve productivity for an international hospitality conglomerate and for internationally famous resorts.
• Creation of a cohesive finance and accounting function with fully automated financial reporting system and voice/data communications network linking five disparate divisions for a privately-held processing/distribution company.
• Oversight of five start-ups, three divestitures and multiple business expansion activities for a privately held high-growth entrepreneurial construction corporation with 10+ businesses.
• Ownership and development of many entrepreneurial business ventures including my own restaurants and bars.

These achievements are indicative of the quality and caliber of my entire professional career. Whether challenged to accelerate growth, orchestrate a top to bottom reorganization, or position a company for long-term expansion, I have provided the strategy, guidance, and leadership to achieve aggressive results. Equally notable are solid team building, motivation, and leadership skills to create top-flight professional organizations.
