Learning new things

I have spent most of my life competing and make it a point to workout on a regular basis.  Most recently, I retired from Top Alcohol drag racing and Extreme Rock Crawling/Racing.  I continue to enjoy mountain biking, road cycling, golfing, motorsports, hiking and a variety of other indoor and outdoor activities.  The word "no" is not in my vocabulary.  If there's a will, there's a way!   
I have an extensive background in Marketing, Operations, Project Management, Customer Service and Contracts.  My skill set leans towards Strategic Planning, SWOT Analysis, Research & Logistics, Brand Development & Listening, Trend Analysis, Multi-channel Marketing, Revenue Generation, Vendor & Contract Management  and Project Management.  I have led B2B & B2C growth, reduced cost, streamlined operations, optimized engagement & client retention and led top-flight teams.
