About

My first venture out of college was a sales career for major corporations. A focus on planning, execution, learning, and accountability resulted in exceptional benefits for my clients. Developing skills for communication competence enabled me to become an enthusiastic and resourceful leader dedicated to team excellence.

I eventually transitioned into Professional Athletic Training. The Practice specialized in postural movement, core performance, and injury rehabilitation through program design using weights, kettlebells, and cardiovascular implementation.

For the past 15 years, I've supported leaders through the Life Transformation Process, which emphasizes commitment through clarity with identity and beliefs.

This strategy establishes a consistent, disciplined approach for personal and professional development. The outcome for those I serve is the fulfillment of their leadership potential to have an extraordinary impact on whom they lead.

I presently speak to organizations about the lessons learned from my Leadership Coaching and the recent physical, spiritual, psychological, relational, and emotional changes encountered from enduring open-heart surgery. I'm devoted to prepare and encourage you to master the challenges for achieving success with courage and confidence in your life.
