I’ve spent more than 15 years working inside inventory-heavy consumer businesses, from the Head of Merchandise Planning at Pier 1 Imports to the founding COO for a $120M+ portfolio of consumer brands.

​

Most of my work has centered on the levers that materially change the economics of a business: working capital, margin, inventory productivity, sourcing, forecasting, and operating discipline.

 

That has included reducing excess inventory, improving cash conversion, lowering product cost, integrating acquisitions, and building better planning and operating processes.

​

OpAxiom grew out of that experience. I work with leadership teams and investors on the kinds of operating problems I’ve spent my career solving, particularly where inventory, cash, margin, or growth have become harder to manage as companies scale.

​

If you’re working through something similar, or simply want to compare notes, I’d be glad to talk.
