As a dedicated servant leader with a passion for people-first management, I bring over 20 years of proven expertise in logistics, program management, and global operations. In my role as Senior Global Operations Director & Supply Chain Manager, I have thrived in diverse environments, collaborating seamlessly with individuals from varied backgrounds to consistently deliver impactful results for customers worldwide. I am proud of my track record in optimizing operational efficiency and reducing costs. Notably, I achieved an 80% reduction in freight costs by strategically optimizing backhaul schedules and skillfully negotiating carrier rates. My commitment to excellence is exemplified through the safe and successful delivery of sensitive equipment, including ammunition and explosives, to Marines stationed across the globe. Over the course of my career, I have directed and managed 150 personnel (Marines) and orchestrated ammunition logistics tactical operations in 12 different countries. Contributing to 35 Global Security Cooperation exercises across 20 countries, including Europe, EU, Germany, Norway, Japan, Korea, and East Asia, I have consistently demonstrated my ability to navigate complex challenges and deliver results in diverse international settings. I'm a strategic thinker and adept leader, I possess the capability to provide clear direction and drive continuous improvement initiatives.

I import coffee from farmers all over the world. I also own ten high end specialty coffee shops where we roast on site. I can help with any coffee related questions from sourcing the coffee to setting up your own shop and everything in between.

I've always seen design and manufacturing not as separate realms but as interconnected parts of a single process. My journey began at Arcteryx and within the innovation hub of Lululemon, where I honed my skills before branching out to redefine the processes for clients in the outdoor industry. My agency, Grey Area Studio, isn't just about creating designs; it's about revolutionising how we think about product creation. We integrate rapid iterative prototyping with cutting-edge digital design to deliver not just concepts but complete, market-ready solutions. From the initial spark of an idea to the final stages of patterning, prototyping, tech packs, material sourcing, and manufacturing management, we're not just involved — we're embedded in every step. This is what sets us apart: a design agency that operates like a high-performance engine in the fast-paced world of innovation. How can I help you build a toolkit to engineer better product?
