I remained the lead US treasury contact for the Italian and Swiss treasury arms of this multinational corporation after it acquired Armstrong Rubber Co. where I worked at the time of the acquisition.

I started in multnational treasury in this entry-level corporate headquarters position.

I was a multinational banker in the NYC head office and at the Chicago Edge Act bank branch.

I strove to make a impact on adult students who had returned to gain a college degree. I urged them to think at a higher level and describe "why" and "how" rather than more pedestrian "who" and "what" before it became fashionable. Some students were talented and capable of becoming more sought-after employment candidates. I remain in contact with a few on LinkedIn and am pleased to watch their careers develop. I refined my technical and theoretical communication skills and developed the teaching methods I use today in my public speaking and group training. I taught undergrad level Management, Finance, Business Ethics, and Human Geography, among other courses.

I served as a corporate treasury officer responsible for all aspects of US, Canadian and South American treasury strategies, as well as held responsible position in overall corporate-level management of treasury projects. I co-managed the shared service center as its HQ partner and contributed to the enhanced US cash flow. I saw opportunities in FOREX and funding strategy that others in the company did not, and implemented them for optimal treasury and revenue results. I designed and led the corporate-wide multilateral netting, the first email-based netting of its time, cited in industry publications for our global technology leadership. I advised on treasury aspects of M&A, was cited by senior management for my contribution to a number of global joint ventures, and was the lead player in newly acquired subsidiary absorption.

I was responsible for treasury operations and financial strategies for the North American holding company of this global beverage and confectionary manufacturer. I served as a primary North American manager for cash forecasting, FOREX operations, intercompany loans, and investments. I managed the cash movements required for multiple complex acquisitions and managed their absorption into the global company cash and treasury centers. In my first day on the job, I served as the lead US-based treasury funding manager for the Mexican beverage company acquisition, the largest ever by Cadbury up to that time.
