About Me
Seasoned leader with broad experience in general business management, as well as technical software development, marketing and branding, now leading a cannabis industry enterprise into the "Green Rush."
Career began as a highly technical software engineer. Designed and coded the centralized credit card, health care, and check-processing ("Online Transaction Processing") system for CVS Pharmacy. Has programmed in 9 languages, including systems programming in assembler and C.
Founded RI Soft Systems (later acquired and merged with Mediaweave) and guided it to becoming the most-recognized name in screensaver development, producing several of the all-time most popular screensavers for Microsoft Windows. Launched Screensaver.com division in 1997 and built it to become the most popular, highest-traffic screensaver web site on the internet. Sold Screensaver.com in 2003 for $1M, then sold the main company in 2004 for another $1M.
Launched 401 Consulting, an interactive agency, and grew that business from scratch, culminating in a sale to a larger agency in 2016, further demonstrating the ability to repeatedly start new ventures and successfully build and grow them.
Has managed all aspects of building businesses and maintaining them over the long term, including marketing programs, sales initiatives, employee management, HR issues, finances, mergers and acquisitions, contract negotiations and more.
Nearly 30 years of experience of running a business has built a clear, crisp understanding of business requirements and operating principles. This gives the ability to design solutions that are intelligent, with considerable forethought to business issues (ie "seeing the forest for the trees.")
