He has worked for Fortune 500 companies in highly technical programs valued in the hundreds of millions of dollars and has been involved with startups barely able to meet weekly payrolls. His knowledge of what it takes to make a business successful comes from the hard knocks of building day to day and recovering from the inevitable mistakes or unfortunate circumstances that are part of that growth.

In the telecommunication industry, he built a national sales and marketing program. He is the co-founder and current board member of the National Association of Drug Free Workplaces (NADFW), an organization on the forefront of business security and employee drug screening.
