Getting to Know Each Other

Strong Partnerships are built on mutual Understanding.

I help businesses and leaders make measurable positive change. By aligning culture, people, and processes, we can solve the problems holding companies back and help them achieve lasting success. I listen closely, ask the right questions, and look for the patterns that shape both business and leadership.

My Ideal Client

The best partnerships start with the right fit.

What I offer can help a wide range of businesses across various industries. But it's not simply the company’s industry that determines whether our partnership will be successful—it’s who they are at their core that determines whether our partnership will be successful—it’s who they are at their core. Just as I'm not a fit for everyone, not everyone is a fit for me.

Over time, I’ve found that the partners with whom I've had the most success share common traits:

My Story & Passion

Pain opens the door for change.

My love for building, eagerness to do hard things, and internal drive to make things better led me to the commercial construction industry. It’s one of the most intense fields—known for high safety risks, demanding schedules, razor-thin margins, and high turnover. But it also mirrors the core challenges found in every industry: managing budgets and timelines, building effective teams, leading through pressure, and driving consistent results.

Construction taught me a humbling and empowering truth about all businesses: we have far more in common than we think. Across every business, success depends on strong leadership, aligned systems, and people who are set up to perform their best.

During the three years leading the team that built the City Center Plaza project and the Boise Centre expansion in the heart of downtown Boise, we brought in a new, seasoned superintendent to manage a major component of the job. He was sharp, experienced, and clearly capable—but he left in less than six months. How could one of the most respected construction companies in the state lose someone that valuable, that quickly?

Before he left, he gave me two reasons—both painfully common: our processes made his job twice as hard, and our culture made it harder still. That moment changed something in me. It brought together every hard lesson I’d learned over two decades. I saw how much money we were losing, how many good people we were driving away, and how easily all of it could be prevented.

I shifted my focus from building projects to helping build businesses that perform at a high level without sacrificing their people along the way. Today, I help businesses make changes that increase retention, help managers and leaders get more out of their people, and make the jobs those people do more impactful and fulfilling. I believe capitalism doesn’t have to treat people like interchangeable components—it can and should be a positive experience. When it’s not, people leave companies.

I’m passionate about helping organizations become places where people feel seen, valued, and empowered to do their best work. When culture is strong, systems are clear, and leadership is aligned, people thrive—and so does the business.

This isn’t about theory or idealism. It’s about practical changes that make a tangible difference in people’s daily experience. And that kind of change creates ripple effects that extend far beyond the workplace.

My Mission:

To strengthen my community by improving the places people work. "Better Work, Better Life."

My Core Belief:

I believe that companies aren’t separate from the people who make them work, nor are they separate from the communities in which they operate. They’re part of a symbiotic system. When parts of that system operate without regard to the others, they end up hurting both themselves and the system as a whole. But when businesses act with awareness of that interdependence—when they lead with integrity, value their people, and operate with clarity—everyone benefits.

My approach is grounded in the belief that people matter, culture matters, and the way you work together determines your success in the short and long terms. When your values show up in your systems and leadership, your entire organization benefits.

These are the values and beliefs that drive the way I work:

  • Come from curious—don't assume you already know, ask to questions to understand

  • Practice vulnerability—real trust only grows in honest spaces

  • Operate with an abundance mindset—there's enough success to go around

  • Lean toward simplicity—simplicity beats complexity every time

  • People thrive when their roles align with their natural strengths

  • Culture is not a side project it’s the driver of business success

  • What you believe dictates what’s possible

  • We reject the idea that work and life are separate—they’re both just life

  • Doing the right thing, even when it's hard, creates better long-term outcomes

  • Great teams make better individuals—and vice versa

These beliefs shape every engagement, every conversation, and every plan I help create. I've consistently seen that staying true to them leads to outcomes that make businesses and people thrive.

My Experience

Unique Experience Allows For a Unique Contribution.

Over the course of my career, I’ve developed a reputation for helping businesses bring order to chaos. Because improving things is what I naturally do, I’ve been invited into nearly every major function of the businesses I’ve worked with—business development and sales, marketing, operations, warranty, HR, talent acquisition and management, risk management, IT, and accounting and finance.

This wide range of experience and exposure allows me to bring unique value to a partnership:

  • Wide Perspective – I see both the full picture across the company and the stories played out in the individual components that make it up.

  • Operational Expertise – I know how to assess, adjust, and align operations systems so they actually work. I can speak the language of process on multiple levels.

  • Translator – I bridge communication between leaders, departments, and teams to build understanding and trust. I see people and groups the way they want to be seen, and I can help others see them that way too.
