2026 QUESTIONNAIRE

PROFESSIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS & OPPORTUNITIES

What has been your/your company’s most significant success over the past 12 months? Growth in very difficult times for tech consulting

What has you most excited about the future of your company or industry? We have reinvented our business to focus on client partnerships and team experience

If you could change one thing about your industry, what would it be and why? Local, client-focused consulting companies being gobbled up by massive tech consultancies. This really devastates the experience and value for our clients, teams, and local communities.

What’s the toughest business challenge you’ve had to overcome? It’s been an incredibly difficult journey since COVID—lots of ups and downs and uncertainty in the global financial markets, and so many enterprises moving technology investments offshore.

What’s a risk you took in business that didn’t pan out—but taught you something valuable? We went down a path with a potential buyer for our business that ultimately didn’t pan out for several reasons. Throughout that process, I appreciated so much how unique we are in our space—how uniquely we serve our clients, our team, and the local communities we support. It made it so clear to us that we are not for sale.

What advice would you give to the next generation of St. Louis entrepreneurs or leaders? Be sure that you give back to the communities that make it all possible.


MENTORS & PEERS

What is a key strength of the St. Louis metro area business environment? Strong community connections and desire to invest in local business and community

What is one thing you would change about the St. Louis metro area business environment? Spirit of cooperation and abundance, as opposed to competition and scarcity

Who in your company (or industry) deserves more recognition for their impact? Our teams, who build the systems that our clients rely on, as well as for the countless others who ensure that our clients see the value of the work we performed. It is not enough to deliver a project; a project must deliver value.

What’s a local organization, nonprofit, or initiative that more people should know about—and why? Lift for Life Gym is truly a hidden gem in our community. It opened its doors 34 years ago, yet still today advances its mission with a very limited budget of approximately $800,000.00 annually. The Gym serves about 600 kids each year that live in or around the 63106 ZIP code… The gym provides kids ages 8–18 with an after-school safe haven, and it’s fully free of charge. There are also hot and healthy meals; weight lifting, sports, and other fitness; and quiet safe space to do homework and get help.


BACKGROUND

Where were you born? Portland, Oregon

What educational degrees do you hold, and where were they earned? JD/MBA, Saint Louis University; BS, Arizona State University

What was your first job, and what did you learn from it? My first job out of law school was serving as a law clerk to Federal District Court Judge Stephen N Limbaugh Sr., who has instilled in me, even before I started working with him, a relentless sense of duty. For those of us who can, we must do, support, and lead.


HOBBIES & INTERESTS

What’s your hobby/passion? Being a horseman

What do you do when you’re feeling stuck or uninspired? Spend time in nature (with horses).

What would people be surprised to learn about you (fun fact)? I am a massive introvert.
