My focus is turning cross-functional operations into unified systems that deliver predictable results, measurable value, and long-term organizational stability.My career spans global markets, industrial operations, and regional economic development. I began in FX trading and structured products at Swiss Bank O’Connor (UBS), an experience that strengthened my analytical rigor, risk recognition, and decision velocity. I went on to lead strategic capital advisory engagements, serve as COO/CFO in advanced manufacturing environments, and guide economic development efforts across the Upstate/Greenwood region of South Carolina.Today, I apply that multi-sector experience to lead organizations through transformation, scale, and modernization.Core Competencies:• Enterprise operations and performance architecture• Financial strategy, forecasting, and risk governance• Shared-services development and organizational alignment• AI-driven operational transformation• Process optimization and quality systems design• Multi-team integration across technical, creative, and operational domainsMy leadership philosophy is straightforward: design systems that work, develop people who excel within them, and maintain a disciplined structure that supports long-term strategic execution.Outside the enterprise environment, I also manage strategic and brand development for The Other LA—a rising hard-rock band led by my daughter. This work blends strategic discipline with creative energy and reinforces my belief that strong systems enable exceptional performance in any field.At every stage of my career, the constant has been this:When you align people, systems, and strategy—you unlock growth, resilience, and opportunity.B.S. degree in Economics from Clemson University and his MBA from the A.B.
