Transforming Consumer Brands

I partner with investors, boards, and leadership teams to lead high-impact transformations in apparel, luxury, and consumer retail.

I’m a CEO and operator focused on transforming consumer brands at pivotal moments—whether that means repositioning the brand, rebuilding the product and customer experience, or driving a full operational reset.

Over the past decade, I’ve led transformations across global brands and turnaround situations, including The North Face, TRX, Bonobos, and now Paul Stuart, where I serve as CEO and equity partner.
