About Adam Cohen

Highlights:Experienced systems and process manager with a focus on building structurally sound and economically efficient businesses through the use of lean processes, automation, and the global workforce. Seasoned leader responsible for building and managing medium-sized (peak capacity of 40 members) interdisciplinary and international teams performing tasks relating to legal/land title, data analytics, website/app development, sales, operations, and marketing. Demonstrated ability in identifying opportunities, resolving operational challenges, and removing barriers to success within the small business environment. About Me:I define myself by the quality of my work, integrity of my relationships, and expansion of my knowledge base. Driven by the stoic philosophy, I see challenges as opportunities for growth and embrace change through focused and applied effort. While family forms the center of my life, work is a close second, and both provide excellent channels for me to test my capacities/capabilities and explore new ways to become a better human being. Although I love philosophy and contemplative exercises, I\'ve come to realize those thought experiments are not useful unless they create a qualitatively meaningful and positive impact on the people and systems with which we engage. As such, I benchmark my success through the quality of my relationships and the performance of the businesses I help create.
