Founder & Coach
Father. Educator. Mentor. Coach. Lifelong Learner. Relentless Pursuer of Truth. Lover of the outdoors.

I have had a wonderful career in education, first as a high school history teacher and then in several consulting roles. I have worked for education publishing and education technology companies in sales, consulting, implementation, and leadership. Some of the most personally rewarding roles have been that of teacher, mentor, coach and parent.
My philosophy is that each person has it within themselves to be whoever they want to be on their life journey. It’s my role to help break down any obstacles that might stand in the way by guiding individuals through a self-reflective process that allows them to realize their self-fulfilling success.
