I offer a distinctive executive skill set and a track record of
industry success. While it may sound trite, the only constant today
is continuous change. My professional philosophy embraces change and
I offer expertise in executing change management initiatives and
leading with the paradigm shift focus crucial to achieving and
sustaining the marketplace dominance. I enjoy taking on new roles
within an organization that will add greater value to the business
and drive profitability through performance improvement.

As a high-energy professional with a proven talent for change
management, I am skilled in critically evaluating and responding to
diverse organizational needs such as procedural enhancement,
productivity improvement, and cost reduction in a multiunit, high
tech or services environment. My strong team building skills and
excellent problem solving abilities underpin my ability to
effectively function as an agent for process improvements.

I also enjoy rich experiences in managing complex business, funding,
and strategic relationships, conceptualizing and executing strategic
business development or reorganization plans, and achieving
sustainable bottom-line improvements in the financial and operational
performance. My CEO/COO/CFO leadership talents are reflected through
a series of successful outcomes in rapid-growth and turnaround
environments, IPO or M&A situations, and equity financing/market
capitalization challenges.

I would enjoy an opportunity to discuss how my professional skills,
work ethic and personal ambition might assist the efforts of your
Board of Directors in advancing your corporate goals and enhance
shareholder value.

Very truly yours,
