A diverse educational and experiential background gives him specific insight into the unique challenges facing nonprofits in the rapidly changing 21st century. His broad base of knowledge and skills give him the ability to meet those challenges. He recognizes that technological innovation, increasingly complex governmental regulation, and the constant pressure to innovate, to do more with less and to achieve targeted results without fail require that a leader have a deep understanding of all aspects of an organization. Now more than ever, he believes, nonprofit leadership means achieving the balance between ‘doing good’ and succeeding as a business. It means embracing change and meeting it with an entrepreneurial spirit to create an organization\'s future and ultimately to improve the lives of those he serves.He holds an active CPA license in the State of Maryland and Chartered Global Management Accountant certification.
