Bio

My professional career spans more than 45 years, including the military, and police, as a businessman solving problems for the high-tech industry in Silicon Valley, and as a Tech Start-Up advisor for three new companies. All of these experiences, good and bad depending on the assignment, give me an interesting perspective on business processes and how companies operate internally. I help existing companies overcome internal issues and focus on the business. I also help Start-Up companies become successful as a business and if needed raise private equity. If you are a veteran wanting to start up a Tech Company, feel free to reach out to me. If I am able to help, I will.
