What is your favorite part of working at National Credit Adjusters?

The people. Everyone at each level understands the objective and we support each other every step of the way.

In the receivables industry, what emerging trend has your attention?

Digital strategies. The ability to be able to communicate with consumers via SMS, email or chatbot is exciting. I started in this industry when it was manually dialing from postcards. 

What industry change do you predict over the next 5 years?

I believe more and more companies will adopt some level of an AI solution to supplement their overall strategies.   

How do you define success?

It is the accomplishment of meeting an objective that you have been trying to achieve. Success requires discipline, commitment, and a clear vision.

What is the best piece of advice you have ever received in life?

Whether it is a personal or company goal you must set clear expectations. If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it. 

What advice would you give someone entering the receivables management industry?

Be curious. Ask questions. Understand, understand, understand. Knowledge is what drives change in performance.    

What are you most proud of or what is your biggest accomplishment?

Being a father. Every day I have so much pride in seeing my children grow and develop into remarkable adults. 

What is your favorite book or podcast?

I honestly can’t say I have a favorite book or podcast. I really enjoy documentaries and one of my favorites is The Last Dance.

If you could do any other non-industry job for just one day, what would it be?

I would love to coach an NFL football game. The challenge of preparing and executing the game plan to lead the team to victory would be extremely rewarding.
