I’m an entrepreneur, executive coach, and business advisor. I’ve built and led companies, worked alongside leaders at pivotal moments, and learned that progress starts when people are willing to take the next step.
I co-founded Pest Authority and helped grow Mosquito Authority and Pest Authority to nearly 200 franchisees. Authority Franchise Systems, the parent organization, was eventually sold in a controlling transaction to Susquehanna Private Capital.
I also served as chairman and a stakeholder at ProPricer, a premier proposal-pricing platform serving the aerospace and defense industries. Its founder brought me in to help engineer a successful sale; ProPricer was acquired by Deltek, a Roper Technologies company, in a $79.5 million transaction announced in January 2024.
That experience informs my work today: practical guidance for leaders navigating AI and personal encouragement for people beginning something new.
One project helps leaders navigate what’s changing. The other helps people take the first step toward what’s possible.
