Welcome to my website!
Professional
Today, I serve as the Strategic Director and Principal Advisor for several private companies. I previously served as CEO of Fiddlesticks Wood Products, a manufacturer of cooking and fuelwood products, where I engineered and orchestrated the vertical integration of functions into divisions, entities, and partners.
The result was a highly controlled internal supply chain, encompassing:
- Green Yard Sourcing – Collection and preprocessing of recycled content
- Manufacturing – Conversion of log truckloads into processed products
- Packaging – On-premises processing and co-packer management
- Wholesale Distribution – Packaged fuelwood to Mass Market Retail
- Alabama Cooking Wood – Brand-specific distribution to restaurants
- Direct-to-Consumer E-commerce – Tailored products & fulfillment systems
My experience spans diverse industries and roles. A natural curiosity drives me to analyze complex problems and deliver solutions through collaboration. From factory floor to balance sheet, I value strategy, integration, and outcomes. Check out my CV if you want to know more →
Philosophy
I believe the ultimate purpose of life is to become a better being. Life is hard—and we’re built to overcome. Cultivating myself is about stewardship and empathy. I strive to contribute to a more enlightened world, not just contemplate one.
Personal development demands honesty about limitations, failures, and vanities. I believe in truth, discipline, and growth. Virtue is demanding—integrity even more so. My aim is to be fruitful, subdue myself, and produce something worthwhile.
