My story begins after high school, when my interest in filmmaking (yes, I really thought I was going to be the next Steven Spielberg) took me to the University of North Texas to study Radio, TV, and Film. Within a couple years of arriving in Denton, TX, I realized I wasn’t making school a priority and I had some growing up to do.

This was around the time that 9/11 happened, and that horrific event opened my mind and got me thinking about joining the military. My interest in film waned after joining the United States Air Force to become a Security Forces member. My enlistment in the Air Force was my first exposure to multiple types of leadership. I learned firsthand the difference between servant, situational, and positional leadership, to name a few. The more connections I made, the more I realized how important genuine relationships are, and that influence is the root of leadership.

For the last 20 years, I’ve taken what I’ve learned and what I continue to learn to grow and develop leaders. Reaching people and building leaders is my mission. Empowering those I coach, train, and connect with to understand and believe that they have the ability to effect change is my objective. I have a demonstrated history of coaching people to take their leadership skills to the next level and achieve incredible results.
