About

Executive leader with 25+ years of experience building, scaling, and advising global direct selling and network marketing organizations. Proven track record of launching companies and expanding international markets, growing revenues from startup to $40M+ per month and generating $200M+ in cumulative sales. I specialize in end-to-end company building — from executive team formation and compensation plan design to international market expansion, payments infrastructure, compliance, and large-scale field development. My career has focused on helping companies move from concept or early traction into scalable, global organizations with durable systems and aligned incentives. My background includes deep operational leadership across the United States, Latin America, and Europe, with hands-on experience in product sourcing, payment processing, commissions systems, cryptocurrency-enabled solutions, regulatory coordination, and global event execution. I am most effective in environments that require speed, clarity, and execution — particularly during launch phases, international expansion, turnaround scenarios, or periods of accelerated growth.
