Meet our founder and principal consultant
In the mid-nineties, I founded my first company. I had always been a ‘computer kid’ and was working at CompuServe at the time, so naturally my startup embraced ‘newer’ computer-driven workflows. Many of my competitors in the manufacturing business were resistant to new technology, and a few years later, all the dinosaurs in my industry who had not embraced computer technology were out of business. It was a lesson that technology investment is not optional for companies that want to survive.
I took that lesson to heart. Over the next 22 years, we embraced technology at every turn, leading to incredible growth and a successful exit. Key milestones included:
Scaling the company to over 200 full-time employees.
Managing a 75,000 sq. ft. warehouse where every workflow was computer-driven.
Building a custom ERP system from the ground up to orchestrate all operations.
Integrating cutting-edge tech including e-commerce, EDI, and machine learning.

Founder / CEO
At DreamSight, we are a platform-agnostic technology services agency focused on AI, process automation, and technology strategy for small and medium-sized businesses. My career has been dedicated to a single principle: technology investment is not optional. After building and exiting two successful companies by embracing new tech, my passion is now helping a select group of businesses navigate today's rapidly changing landscape.
A Journey Forged by Real-World Experience
The First Lesson: Evolve or Become a Dinosaur
Act Two: Mastering Platforms and Automation
I decided to pursue my passion for helping small businesses overcome their challenges and thrive in competitive industries with the help of well-designed and integrated systems. With that in mind, I started my first technology consulting company - Summit Technologies, a Salesforce* consulting partner. I fell in love with how quickly one could build powerful, integrated and automated systems using the low and no-code tools. Over the next eight years, I worked with hundreds of small businesses, nonprofits, higher education institutions and local government organizations to help them streamline their operations and grow their businesses. We were very successful, and I was able to grow the team to over 20 full time employees before I grew restless again.
Today: A Focus on AI and Strategic Impact
In the spring of 2024, I left my roles as managing partner of Summit Technologies to focus on researching and developing AI solutions for small and medium sized businesses (SMBs). Unsurprisingly, the market is flooded with AI solutions and I have spent a great deal of time evaluating as many as possible to separate the legitimate solutions from the pretenders.
Now, I have launched DreamSight.ai. We are a platform-agnostic technology services agency focused on AI, process automation, system implementation, system integration and technology strategy for small businesses. We have identified some less obvious yet transformative applications for AI, as well as vendors who are making game-changing products using AI to generate new leads, increase sales and streamline operations.
I intend to focus on my passions: watching my beautiful granddaughters grow up and helping a select group of small businesses navigate a rapidly changing technology landscape. I believe that with the right insight and technology solutions, it is possible to thrive in an era that will see many businesses who don’t evolve get left behind.
If you're ready to navigate this new landscape with an experienced partner, I invite you to schedule a consultation.
