My Story
Since high school, I have desired to become a forward-thinking business transformation expert. It was about knowing how money works and how to make it through entrepreneurship.
Did I know what it meant to be a business transformation expert back then? No. The term did not exist. And unlike others, I did not have a mentor, a person that took me under their wing and guided me through the minefield of business and career development. It was like going through a maze of obstacles. That included dealing with intentional and unintentional haters, systematic and institutional racism, and those unwilling to share their knowledge, influence, money, or just receive simple help. Have you experienced any of these obstacles? Consequently, I figured it out and learned the essence of business on my own.
What a journey. Now looking at it, the things I've done, the places I've been to, and the people I've seen. I believe myself quite blessed. And I don't take it for granted. Based on the breadth and depth of these experiences and what I can do for you, I provide business transformation expertise.
For me, capturing a comprehension of business, technology, and strategies was a must. Designing cutting-edge business opportunities and solutions that encompassed the complexity of business challenges was a requirement. In the end, I gained a combined insight into the knowledge of business systems, process design, finance, accounting, and sales and business development. Overall, it is about understanding the enterprise as a whole. Also, you must know the economic environment in which the business operates and how to sell the product or service.

Now I can share how a business, its architectural design, and the sales development process create entrepreneurial wealth. It is about making money.
Whether designing new solutions, these solutions must meet or exceed business goals, exploiting technology. I know how to identify business constraints and develop solutions that impact earnings and cash flows.
As an entrepreneur, author, blogger, and global speaker, I have taught executives, MBA students, entrepreneurs, and professionals about business renewals, business development, and business transformation. Consequently, I will share my experience in manufacturing, service providing, investment, and commercial banking, technology, and education with you.

International Commercial Banking
My world changed due to an internship at the Wall Street headquarters of the BNY Mellon Bank (the Irving Trust Co.), the Corporate Financial Counseling Department, and the International Credit Center. Witnessing the global flows of money, commerce, and trade, changed my desire to become an auditor to an international banker.
Think about it. I was a kid from the Bronx. For the first time, I was reading Institutional Investor and Euromoney Magazines, the rags read by the money lenders. Seeing multimillion-dollar transactions transferring through the SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications) system became eye-opening. As a result, my view of the business world turned upside down. And consequently, this became my new reality.
With this experience, I became an international commercial lender with Bank of America (Republic Bank Dallas) with country responsibilities for Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and India. I loved this job so much that I hated the weekend. This is a story within a story. But I managed one of the most extensive loan portfolios in the bank and never wrote down a troubled loan. And I conducted business with some of the most exciting companies and business people. One person was Sukanto Tanoto, now a billionaire who then ran PT Raja Garuda Mas, a pulp and paper company. I leaned so much. And I was on fire. However, because of haters due to my race, all good things must end.
The Joy of Teaching
What can I say? I truly enjoy teaching. Have taught MBA students at the University of Northern Virginia and Executive MBA students on the campuses of Wesley Post Graduate College (affiliated with Osmaning University), India, Peking University, Tsinghua University, and Shanghai Jiaotong University.
