About
A career spent running operations and building what comes next.
I started my career managing 200 people on warehouse floors at McMaster-Carr, where I learned that great operations are built by people, not systems.
From there, I moved to DaVita Kidney Care, advising the C-suite on a capital allocation committee approving $400M a year in new development.
I then spent 8 years across Performance Team and Maersk. I co-founded their first Innovation Center, led digital transformation across AI, computer vision, and digital twins, and ended up running a $500M+ P&L across Maersk's Big & Bulky last-mile business in North America. My team turned a loss-making division to profitability in three months.
Today I'm SVP of M&A and Strategy at Weber Logistics, a private-equity-backed West Coast 3PL, where I run the acquisition program (sourcing, diligence, and post-close integration) as the platform grows.
On the side, I buy and invest in small businesses through Recharge Venture Group. I believe the backbone of the economy deserves better ownership transitions.
