College Graduate
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from The Ohio State University, specializing in Logistics and Supply Chain Management. My education provided me with a strong foundation in supply chain operations, logistics strategy, inventory management, procurement, distribution, and business operations, preparing me to contribute to organizational efficiency, strategic decision-making, and long-term business success.
Business Operations & Team Leadership
Experienced in helping manage two small businesses, overseeing daily operations from point-of-sale transactions and customer service to staff leadership, sales, marketing, and behind-the-scenes business administration. Skilled in coordinating teams, managing operational responsibilities, and supporting efficient business performance.
Personal Pursuits & Artistic Development
My primary focus is on professional advancement, business development, and building a successful and fulfilling future. I am driven by growth, achievement, and creating meaningful opportunities through my professional endeavors. Outside of my career and business interests, I enjoy music, jazz guitar, and the arts as personal hobbies and creative outlets. With over 20 years of guitar experience, I have explored music theory and studied jazz guitar with world-renowned musicians, while also having opportunities to lead bands, prepare musicians for concert performances, and encourage others within my artistic community. Although I value the knowledge, discipline, and creativity that music brings, I approach it primarily as something I enjoy for the simple pleasure of playing, learning, and expressing myself. It is not my professional focus, but rather a rewarding personal interest that allows me to unwind, explore creativity, and enjoy life outside of my business and career pursuits. Ultimately, my greatest priorities remain professional development, business success, personal growth, and building a strong foundation for the future, while making room for the hobbies and interests that bring balance and enjoyment to life.
Travel, Photography & Global Perspectives
My passion for travel, photography, geography, and nature has shaped my creative interests and professional direction. Exploring new places inspired my pursuit of Logistics and Supply Chain Management, deepening my interest in global trade, transportation, and the interconnectedness of international markets. My interest in photography extends beyond digital media to traditional photographic techniques, including hands-on experience studying and developing photographic film in a darkroom. I have also gained extensive experience in digital photo editing, image processing, and various media applications. These interests reflect my appreciation for creativity, technical skill, visual storytelling, and the exploration of the world around me.
