Burbank, California, United States
I help construction and facility services businesses scale—without losing execution in the field. My focus: building operating systems, integrating acquisitions, and developing leaders so growth shows up in quality, safety, and margins. What I work on: • Acquisition integration (people + process + performance) • Operating cadence (KPIs, accountability, standard work) • Process + workflow improvements that reduce friction and rework • Leadership development for supervisors/PMs to run cleaner jobs I’m VP of Operations at Westcon Construction Services and Maintco, and a Vistage member. On LinkedIn I share: practical lessons from growth, integration, and running ops in the real world. If you’re building a durable ops engine (or integrating a new team), feel free to connect or DM.
My expertise lies in scaling businesses through disciplined operations and successful acquisition integration. I have led the development of operating policies, performance standards, and best practices that improve efficiency, protect margins, and create consistency across acquired and legacy organizations. I bring a hands-on approach to cost optimization, process standardization, and operational alignment, ensuring acquisitions translate into real financial and cultural value. A core strength of mine is post-acquisition integration—aligning people, systems, and workflows while maintaining continuity for customers and employees. I focus on building leadership depth, establishing accountability, and creating clarity during periods of change. Through strong relationships with customers, suppliers, and partners, I help stabilize operations and position businesses for sustained growth following a transaction.
As a 2nd-generation executive, I lead with an owner’s mindset—balancing growth, risk, and long-term stewardship. My experience centers on building durable operating systems that support profitability, consistency, and customer satisfaction while respecting the culture and legacy of a family-owned business. I place heavy emphasis on people, accountability, and continuous improvement, building teams that take ownership of outcomes rather than simply executing tasks. I am deeply involved in supplier and customer relationships, understanding that trust, reliability, and reputation are critical assets in an owner-operated environment. My focus is always on decisions that strengthen the business not just for the next quarter, but for the next generation.
