I love building stuff; businesses, teams, events, partnerships, relationships, and anything with wood.Dynamic and organized, ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines across time zones.Results driven - Navigates well through ambiguity and is adaptable to change.Managed a SF Based brokerage with 20+ agents for over a decade.Managing Broker of a SF based boutique firm for 5 years, Synesis Advisors , which I co-founded.Engaged in 100’s of transactions from Main Street to lower middle market ($10MM-$40M~)Communicates and influences effectively across organizational levels and personalities.Having been self-sufficient since my youth has fostered my self-starter, highly competitive demeanor today.I am a convergent thinker and problem solver, often pivoting from team member to head coach to janitor.Communication is key. I strive for clarity in interactions which allows the highest probability for a successful outcome.Confident in my abilities while humble enough to know when to listen. Two ears one mouth has been a motto of mine for decades.I value honesty and relationships and one’s moral compass. I learned long ago that integrity is paramount for a leader’s success. From a football field to a brokerage office, in the absence of integrity there is no defense.I value ingenuity and proactivity. I have met many remarkably successful people. I found the common denominator in their successes was not timing, intelligence, connections, etc., it was the simple fact that they went and did it.
