I’ve spent over 25 years leading in the corporate world—managing teams, building departments, and mentoring people through change. But my path to coaching didn’t come through a job title. It came from real-life experience, struggle, and personal transformation.
Along the way, I realized the most meaningful work I did wasn’t strategy—it was helping people grow. That realization led me to earn my Executive Coaching Certification from Emory University and later pursue training in Relational Life Therapy. Coaching became the place where I could bring everything I’d learned—professionally and personally—into one space.
Like many men, I’ve had seasons of going through the motions—pushing through long work weeks, raising a family, and slowly losing connection to the parts of myself that once brought joy. During those years, friendships faded and burnout set in.
That disconnection led me to start a monthly men’s group here in Charlotte. What began as a few friends over burgers grew into a supportive community of over 50 men—a place where we drop the act and talk about what matters.
When I’m not coaching, I stay grounded through cooking, working out, and spending time with my family and our dog, Levi. I enjoy good meals, college sports, and music that helps me stay connected to the present moment.
Naming what’s real—even when it’s hard—because the truth is what sets us free.
Living from your values in how you love, lead, and relate—especially when it’s inconvenient.
Dropping the mask and choosing intimacy—with yourself and the people who matter.
Owning your impact without blame or shame—and repairing the harm when it matters most.
Believing real change is possible when you stop pretending and start relating.
Meeting pain with empathy—not to enable, but to empower change from a place of care.
If this resonates with you—and you’re curious what coaching could look like—let’s start with a real, pressure-free conversation.
