About Me

Interest topicTechBusiness & FinanceScience
My name is Brian and I'm a semi-retired business executive/professional with an extensive background in business startups, supply chain management, contract negotiating and development with companies like Bank of America, Whirlpool, and Procter & Gamble, etc.
I have managed small and large numbers of people during my career, but I prefer dealing one-on-one with people -- helping them identify their talents, skills, and improve their weaknesses, and helping them reach their goals.
Me as a Teacher
Here's where I can help you:
If you need someone to have conversations with on business topics.
If you need assistance in updating your resume or if you just want me to evaluate your resume. Also, I will make suggestions on how you can get the job you want.... with a large, medium, or small company.
My lessons & teaching style
During our scheduled time, I will do whatever I can to help you improve and reach your conversational and career goals. I have a strong business background and know what companies look for in candidates and how you can position yourself to get the job you want.

Brian is fantastic! He has a lot of experience in chain and has given me super helpful advice for my business. He really knows how to ask the right questions and always makes the lessons valuable. If you're looking for someone who can offer more than just language practice, I definitely recommend him!
