One of the most difficult questions for me to answer is, “Where are you from?” I never have a simple answer. I’ve lived in seven countries across four continents and conducted business in over 20. Each place has taught me something valuable about what makes businesses thrive.

For over 30 years, I led teams at BASF Corporation, managing groups from 18 to more than 230 people across North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific. I’ve helped businesses navigate tough times, established systems that grow with them, planned for new leaders, and built scalable growth.

Now, as a Senior Business Consultant at Exit Factor, I notice a common challenge. Many great business owners are working harder than ever just to keep what they’ve built. Most started out wanting freedom, but over time, the business began to take over their lives.

With my years of business and leadership experience, at Exit Factor, I help owners reclaim their time and protect what they’ve built. Together, we focus on:
✅ Maximizing business value by finding what buyers really care about.
✅ Building scalable systems so your business runs smoothly without always needing you.
✅ Planning a smooth exit, so you can leave on your own terms, not because you have to.

I earned my MBA from the University of Illinois at Chicago. I believe in servant leadership and in helping others succeed.

If you’re ready to take back your freedom and build a business you can sell, let’s connect.
