I have spent 35 years inside manufacturing and distribution operations. As a partner at Accenture, president of AXIA Consulting, and now Managing Director at Huron, I have led transformations at companies ranging from $100M to $10B in revenue across North America, Asia, and Europe.

My focus is straightforward. I help executive teams find the highest-impact opportunities in their operations and build a clear path to capture them. That means aligning the right technology with the physical realities of the business. ERP, robotics, AI. These tools only deliver results when the processes, layouts, and people are ready for them.

I have worked across industrial and automotive manufacturing, consumer products, med-tech, metals, and distribution and logistics. The work ranges from global supply chain redesigns to plant-level performance improvement. The goal is always the same. Real results on the bottom line, not just a good-looking roadmap.

If you are a VP of Operations, COO, CFO, or CEO at a mid-market manufacturer or distributor and you are wrestling with a big operational challenge, this is a good place to start.
