Personal Comments

"My father used to always say plan your work and work your plan. That discipline has served me well in my professional career. I've always had an interest in creating something that made life, work and achievement a little easier for everyone concerned."

"Project management was a natural step for my inclinations. I've enjoyed a host of books and that have been helpful to my career. Just a few of my favorites are "Fundamentals of Project Management" by Lewis, "Execution" by Bossidy and Charan, and "Getting Things Done" by Allen."

"I enjoy thinking outside the box. Many times we find the core values and disciplines of our business can be helped by looking at things in a different way."
