About Charles

I recently retired from a 35 year career in Business Restructuring, focused on manufacturing operations and Senior Management problems. I spent the early part of my working career in manufacturing and industrial sales.

I have a BA in Management and an MBA with an emphasis on Finance. Truth be know - I was beaten so badly :-) by Accounting types, over the years, I decided to really get into their mindset and turned to night classes to complete my MBA.

My strengths lie in problem identification, solution development and follow through. It would be a privilege to assist our Military Veterans re-entering today's work force.
