I am a senior trainer and facilitator with special expertise for the military and government customers of ASHER. I provide strategic planning, senior program management, subject matter expert, and sales and marketing-consulting services to commercial customers, government organizations and program offices, and educational institutions.

President, SBS Consulting Inc.

SBS Consulting provides strategic planning, senior program management, executive coaching, process improvement, subject matter expert services, and sales and marketing-consulting services to commercial customers, government organizations and program offices, and educational institutions.

I am a business adviser, executive coach, and facilitator with a passion for making a difference in the professional success and personal lives of business and not-for-profit executives.

I have lived in leadership roles for my entire life. For the last 10 years of my military career, and for my entire post-military career, I have successfully led large and small programs and businesses, with profit-and-loss responsibility for budgets ranging from $1M to $450M. Early in my post-military career, I became a student of leadership, management, and selling psychology and still teach and facilitate in those areas.

My personal passion is making a difference in the lives of those around me, through my coaching, facilitation, consulting, and training; and through my involvement in community initiatives that make the world a better place one life and one business at a time.
