Life-long learner of anything and everything. Motivated to leave a positive legacy for my family and my community. Newbie to starting a company, but I'm not scared!
Bio
I've been in B2B national and global sales for 30+ years (yikes!). My roles have spanned from an up-and-down the street commercial sales rep to a General Sales Manager; and most everything in between. Currently my days are filled with being a trusted advisor to the legal market. I'm proud to serve some of the largest global law firms across the world. In my free time (what's that?) I enjoy wrapping my mind around anything I can learn. I also love to golf, fish, play poker, go boating and see live music; most of which with my partner Carla and/or my group of amazing friends. I'm the proud parent of a 21-year-old daughter and 24-year-old son. Oh, and I'm starting a company; go live is August 1, 2024 (fingers crossed).

Elevator Pitch
Every year, municipalities are susceptible to public litigation due to personal injuries. On average, these settlements total to more than $2 billion annually. One of the more common lawsuits is for injury from contact with village/town/city installations of sign and fence posts. Our product mitigates or even eliminates the injury risk to the public and the litigation risk to the municipality.
