I have spent my life working in and for small to midsize closely held businesses, both as an employee and as a consultant. I have a deep, personal understanding of the many challenges faced by these businesses and their management and ownership groups.

My unique background allows me to provide competent solutions in many areas. I am equipped with over ten years of sales and operations experience in small businesses in the retail, manufacturing, and distribution industries. I also spent several years in the public accounting realm, specializing in management consulting and tax resolution, primarily with troubled companies, as well as experience as a financial statement auditor. My current practice focuses almost exclusively on advisory services for troubled companies, including interim and fractional CFO/Controllership work, value growth advisory, and bankruptcy & insolvency consulting.

I serve on the Board of Directors for both the California Tax Education Council and the Workforce Development Board of Madera County. I am an active member of several industry organizations.
