Rockwall, Texas, United States
I am a mission‑driven executive, pastor, and entrepreneur with 28+ years leading complex organizations from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to faith‑based ministries and renewable‑energy ventures. As CFO & Co‑Founder of Olive Street Holdings and Olive Power, I lead financial strategy, capital structuring, and multi‑site rollout for renewable energy and projects. My goal is to partner with investors, engineers, and community leaders to deliver projects that are both economically sound and community‑building. Previously, as Chief of the Business Office/CFO at VA North Texas, I guided billion dollar budgets, compliance, and operational transformation while mentoring high‑potential leaders. In ministry, I have planted and pastored a multi‑generational church, developed leadership pipelines, and trained ministry leaders across Texas. My doctoral research focused on leadership development, and I teach leadership at the university level.
