Working on my presentation.

I have 15 years of enterprise level software team selling experience. I sold payment systems software to the banks, the billers and the hospitality industry.  I have sold to the Fortune 100 and I have also worked for small start-up software companies that sold small to medium-sized businesses. I made the President's Club 2 years in a row at FiServ.  I am very good at selling software. 

In 2003, I made a career change.  I wanted to start a restaurant. I learned restaurant management from the ground up. I started as a bartender at a margarita bar but I learned 5-star, 5 diamond hospitality by working at a restaurant at Little Nell in Aspen, CO.  

In 2007, I became the C.E.O. of a True Value hardware store franchise in Portland, Ore. As the  head of this True Value franchise, I tripled sales, moved the Traeger BBQ inventory online, created an online website called Pellet Grill Outlet and expanded our restaurant to a second location in downtown Portland.  When Traeger moved their production from Wilsonville, Ore. to China, I seized the opportunity to start a competitive line of wood pellet grills called Royal Grills. 

I am a senior level executive with 30 + years of business experience. Most recently, I moved to New York City as the founder of JEDIRICH.COM, a website targeting millennials and Gen Zers to learn about how to lose weight through nutrition and health. I lost 175 pounds by changing my diet. Anyone who has ever tried to lose weight knows that this requires mental discipline, physical willingness and strength. You can learn more on my website, JEDIRICH.COM.
