I'm putting the finishing touches on my new professional website. In the meantime, feel free to reach out directly for PM, BA, or consulting opportunities.
6+ years delivering complex enterprise software across agile teams, with a decade of operational leadership before that. I don't just manage projects — I fix the systems they run on.
15 years of turning around broken stores, broken teams, and broken systems. If growth has outpaced your infrastructure, you don't need a consultant with a deck — you need an operator who executes.
Enterprise clients. Real delivery. No fluff.
Led Agile delivery for a high-volume consumer photo printing platform. Managed sprint cycles, release planning, defect coordination, and chore backlogs including dependency updates and technical debt reduction across a 4-person engineering team.
Managed cross-functional delivery for a complex agriculture technology platform. Translated business requirements into technical specifications, managed backlog grooming, and coordinated delivery across development, QA, and client teams.
Led a dual role as team lead and engineer on a complex enterprise SaaS product. Responsible for sprint delivery, code review, defect management, and maintaining release cadence while contributing production C# and React code.
Managed project delivery for a fast-moving AI search startup. Operated in a high-ambiguity environment requiring rapid prioritization, clear communication, and the ability to translate shifting product direction into actionable sprint goals for engineering.
My career looks like a pivot. It isn't. It's the same work in two different languages. In retail, I fixed broken stores — operations, culture, shrink, P&L, teams. In software, I fixed broken delivery — processes, teams, releases, backlogs. In both, the real job was the same: walk into a system that isn't working, understand it completely, and rebuild it to hold.
Now through Ardmore Business Solutions, I do that work across both worlds — for companies that need someone who has actually run something, not just advised on it.
Managed the hard stores — the ones corporate flagged for closure due to chronic shrink, broken culture, and failing P&Ls. Specialized in walking in, diagnosing fast, and executing a full operational rebuild. Broke inventory records. Turned high-theft locations into low-shrink performers. Managed full P&L, teams of 20–60, loss prevention strategy, and peak season operations moving millions of dollars.
Built and launched a freelance web development practice while still in retail leadership — proving the technical transition was viable and learning that what I'd done in operations mapped directly to how software teams needed to work.
Six years across the full stack of software delivery — writing production C# and React, leading Scrum teams as a CSM, and owning PM responsibilities for enterprise clients including Mpix, Beck's Hybrids, MillersLab, and You.com. Managed releases, defect cycles, sprint delivery, and client relationships simultaneously. Built delivery frameworks where none existed and was the person leadership called when something was off the rails.
Founded a systems-first business operations and technical strategy firm. Serving businesses that have grown faster than their systems — untangling operations, rebuilding infrastructure, and stabilizing teams and processes for long-term scale. The title says it plainly: you get the Principal (me, not a junior), doing Operating Strategy (not just advice — execution).
"The best PMs, the best BAs, the best operators —
they're all doing the same job.
Finding what's broken and fixing it before it compounds."
Not a report. Not a recommendation. An operator who walks in and executes.
"Ardmore is what companies hire when growth outpaces their systems and they need an experienced operator to quietly fix everything."
Ardmore Business Solutions is a systems-first business operations and technical strategy firm. We modernize and stabilize growing businesses by rebuilding their systems, operations, and digital infrastructure — then we leave them ready to operate without us.
Whether you're hiring for a PM or BA role, exploring a consulting engagement through Ardmore, or just want to understand what I do — I'm direct and I don't waste time.
