I lead P&L growth, commercial transformation, and M&A across industrial businesses.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I'm leading Ohio Medical and GCE Americas at ESAB, with responsibility for more than $100M in revenue across sales, marketing, operations, finance, HR, customer service, and regulatory functions. In my first year, I expanded revenue by high single digits and EBITDA by 460 basis points through operational excellence and strategic pricing.
Across ESAB, I've led North American P&Ls spanning specialty alloys, robotics, digital solutions, equipment, specialty metals, retail, e-commerce, and filler metals. I’ve grown market share by 150+ basis points, improved EBITDA by 300+ basis points, delivered 600+ basis points in price realization, and secured $12M in new-channel business.
I build commercial engines around product roadmaps, value selling, pricing, funnel management, customer insight, and scalable talent. I also led the integration of Ohio Medical into ESAB’s Global Gas Control Business, aligning cross-functional teams, milestones, KPIs, synergies, and communications.
Before ESAB, I held strategy, channel marketing, sales operations, business planning, and M&A roles at Eaton across North America and Asia Pacific. I bring more than 20 years of global experience turning strategy into profitable growth, stronger teams, and lasting business transformation.
