I specialize in identifying revenue opportunities others overlook—then building and executing the plans needed to capitalize on them. Whether scaling regional sales, managing national dealer networks, or launching internet-first retail operations, I bring clarity, speed, and measurable outcomes to every initiative I touch.My experience spans full-cycle sales execution, OEM relationship management, MAP/co-op program design, and territory expansion. I understand the challenges of complex buyer ecosystems and know how to navigate them—bringing together internal teams, channel partners, and decision-makers to get deals done. I’ve also built and led dealer programs, implemented structured onboarding and performance tracking systems, and created high-conversion go-to-market strategies across digital and traditional platforms.I bring specific industry knowledge within the firearms and tactical accessories space, with a hands-on understanding of compliance, customer behavior, and competitive dynamics. I’ve worked closely with manufacturers, distributors, and e-commerce platforms like GunBroker and Shopify to drive online growth, manage margins, and optimize inventory turns. This sector-specific insight allows me to speak the language of both the factory floor and the boardroom—translating business goals into actionable plans that win market share.I’m not interested in coasting or maintaining the status quo—I look for roles where I can solve real business problems and be trusted to deliver. I bring urgency, creativity, and a no-excuses approach to sales and growth. Whether you’re seeking to revitalize underperforming territories, enter new markets, or strengthen your OEM pipeline, I’m ready to step in, get to work, and drive results from day one.
