As an experienced CEO and entrepreneur with over 30 years of experience in retail, wholesale, and executive leadership, I am available for consulting, advisory work, board memberships, and speaking engagements.
My passion is helping professionals achieve professional happiness and personal fulfillment, which has been the driving force behind my successful career. My core purpose is to help people find professional happiness while carving out enough personal time to enjoy the great outdoors and my passion for camping.
As the founder of Riderflex, a top-rated recruiting firm that specializes in matching candidate personalities to company culture and supporting businesses of all industries and functions worldwide, I have a proven track record in building successful companies. I am also an expert in crisis management and have successfully led two business turnarounds. I am an accomplished author, with my book "The Riderflex Guide: Inspiring & Hiring" and a successful podcast host of the Riderflex Podcast.
In my free time, I love going camping and trail riding with my jeep and spending time with my wife and family. I am also a grandfather and happily married to my beautiful wife Kim Urban. Together, Kim and I also own and operate Presley Rose Investments LLC, a residential real estate investment company.
My goal is to help your organization find, hire, lead, and inspire the best people for your team. With my extensive experience and knowledge, I can provide valuable insights and advice to help your business thrive. Don't hesitate to reach out to me for any consulting or advisory needs.
