Who is ER3

Most operators focus on either fixing businesses or building new ones - I do both, depending on where the business needs me to enter.  I’m a hands‑on operator with 25+ years of experience leading and scaling businesses across manufacturing, distribution, logistics, and digital commerce.  

Owners and executives bring me in at critical moments - when growth outpaces systems, operations slip, or a new business line needs to be built - and I embed with their teams to restore clarity and execution.  I’ve led P&Ls from startup to $30M+, materially improved cash flow and profitability, and built new revenue engines from scratch.  

I’m based in the greater Charleston, SC area and hold a degree in Economics and International Business from Penn State.

I operate at the intersection of legacy industries and modern digital execution, with over 25 years in manufacturing, distribution, and logistics alongside a 20‑year parallel track in eCommerce and online retail. 

My experience spans building early‑stage transactional platforms (including one of the first online LTL quoting systems) to scaling multi‑channel sales across marketplaces such as Amazon, eBay, and Walmart - as well as direct‑to‑consumer and wholesale distribution. 

I’m most effective in businesses where physical product, supply chain, and sales channels must align - particularly those transitioning from traditional models to more integrated, digitally enabled operations.  This includes implementing ERP and CRM systems, building eCommerce infrastructure, restructuring channels, and creating visibility across inventory, pricing, and demand.  These are often legacy or infrastructure‑driven industries that don’t need reinvention - they need modernization, alignment, and the ability to scale without losing control. 

 The ER3 approach is built on a simple reality: experience only matters if it drives execution and results. 

I operate with a Real, Raw, Results mindset - focused on what’s actually happening inside the business, not what should be - and willing to call out and confront issues directly.  No over-analysis, no theory for its own sake - just clarity, structure, and execution.  

That mindset drives a repeatable operator system that moves businesses from Architect to Scale: defining what needs to exist, aligning teams and accountability, stabilizing operations, installing control through cadence and metrics, and building something that can scale without breaking. 

It’s not a framework - it’s how I step into complexity, take ownership, and deliver results.
