How I can help

My professional background

A number of the successes I was involved with have been in business development for US and for international industrial markets. I have created and reorganized company departments, including Quality, Purchasing, Marketing, and Sales. This involved hiring, training, creating procedures and policies. I believe I am adaptable to what resources are available and still reach an objective. Just that this activity has been B2B rather than web-based.
