I am a seasoned executive and entrepreneur for the past 25 years. As CEO of API - Accommodations Plus, I am responsible for API's strategy, culture and day-to-day operations. My mission is to develop and execute API strategies and lead the growth of the company into the future.

I co-founded Dealertrack Technologies in late 2000 and was the company's CIO, Executive Vice President of Technology & Service Solutions. I had previously served various roles at Dealertrack until, as a public company, the company was acquired by Cox Automotive in late 2015.

From 1996 to 2001, I was Senior Vice President and National Product Director for the Bank of America Auto Group, and previously held a variety of marketing, sales and business development positions at Bank of America. Prior to Bank America, I had worked at Trans Union Corporation from 1993 to 1996.
