Driven by a passion for conservation and community advocacy, I am focused on putting more than 35 years of professional experience to work for causes that matter. I spent my career as a global manager in the oil and gas sector, building a strong track record across payment and loyalty platforms, joint venture creation, international market growth, strategic planning, and market acquisition and divestiture.

Since retiring, I have remained actively engaged in leadership and advisory roles, including serving as a board advisor for P97 Network Inc., supporting startup Auspex, Inc. as a board member, serving as Chair of the Clarke County Industrial Development Authority, and served as President of the Blue Ridge Mountain Civic Association. Today, I am committed to leveraging my experience, perspective, and relationships to support conservation efforts and strengthen our communities.
