    Achievements

    I have helped launch software and Internet companies, artisan food companies, and restaurants.
    As an employee and consultant, I have turned around several companies and products facing stiff market competition and lack of focus. I know how to concentrate on what's important and create clear marketing messages that cut through the noise.
