Transform your life by changing your thoughts, your words, and your actions—because true transformation begins from within.

The life you’re living right now is a reflection of who you’ve been being—how you think, speak, and act. But here’s the truth:
You can BE anyone you want to be. The power to lead, to love, to create, to heal, to thrive—it’s already within you.

So… Who do you want to BE?

Do you want to be a leader others trust and follow?
A partner who shows up with presence and love?
A person of integrity, confidence, and clarity?
Someone who lives in harmony, leads with purpose, and thrives in abundance?Answer that question honestly—and I’m here to help you become that version of you.

Through transformational coaching, I’ll walk with you as you shift your mindset, language, and actions to align with the life you’re called to live.

Be it. Live it. Lead it.
Your transformation starts now.

I work with men and women who are ready to live in harmony, lead with integrity, and thrive in abundance—personally and professionally.

Many of my clients are leaders, high-performers, and people navigating transitions. Some are overcoming addiction or burnout. Others are leveling up in their business, relationships, or leadership roles—but they all come with one desire: to grow.

I’ve worked with people from all walks of life—hedge fund LPs, engineers, firefighters, nurses, venture capitalists, CEOs, house cleaners, PhDs, real estate investors, pastors, Buddhists, Jews, Mormons, homemakers, professional athletes, authors, healthcare professionals, musicians, small business owners, sales professionals, and VPs of billion-dollar companies—and here’s what I’ve learned:

It doesn’t matter what title you hold or what stage of life you’re in—when you feel disconnected from your values, it impacts everything.

I know this firsthand. I’ve walked the hard road of overcoming sex and pornography addictions, and through that journey, I discovered that the core of addiction—and misalignment in life—often comes from losing touch with who we truly are and what we value most.

Whether it’s a perceived lack of love, respect, financial security, or acceptance—the symptoms may vary, but the root is often the same: a drift from integrity and alignment.

That’s where transformation begins. I help clients realign with their core values, make powerful, value-driven decisions, and create lasting change that ripples through every part of life.

My Truth: From Misalignment to Transformation

There was a time when the life I was living was completely out of alignment with the man I wanted to be.

I failed to keep promises and vows to my beloved wife, Laura—hiding parts of myself, including my use of pornography and the extent of my drinking.

I engaged in behaviors that deeply contradicted my values—visiting seedy massage parlors, paying for sex, and living a double life I couldn’t reconcile with the integrity I claimed to uphold.

Even though I worked hard, saved, and achieved success on paper, I was haunted by the feeling that it was never enough—financially, emotionally, spiritually.

I turned to excessive drinking to numb the shame and silence the internal war I was waging.
As a respected public servant, I wore a badge of honor publicly, while privately living at odds with the very values I stood for.

I neglected my health—gaining weight, battling fatigue, and enduring chronic back pain.
Worse, I often lashed out in anger at the people I loved most, a reflection of the inner chaos I couldn’t seem to escape.

The Turning Point

I was out of harmony, out of integrity, and living a life that didn’t reflect the man I truly wanted to be.
And that’s what transformation demanded: radical honesty, deep accountability, and a return to alignment.

I faced my truth—and through that, I reclaimed my life.

Now, I live in alignment with my values. I lead with integrity. I thrive in harmony and abundance.
And I help others do the same.

What My Clients Create

Spiritually

They reconnect to something greater than themselves—whether they call it Jesus, God, Spirit, or Source—and begin to live from a place of trust, surrender, and purpose.
They no longer strive in isolation, but align with a deeper calling, embracing the abundance, peace, and direction that flow from spiritual connection and inner stillness.

Physically

They reclaim their energy and vitality. What was once scattered—into stress, addiction, or burnout—is now focused into intentional, purposeful action.
They experience renewed strength, reverse chronic patterns, and often find themselves in the best shape of their lives, not just physically, but in how they feel each day.

Mentally

My clients learn to separate their true identity from the noise of their thoughts.
They release limiting beliefs and stories that have kept them stuck, and instead adopt empowering truths that reflect who they truly are.
They take radical responsibility for their lives—no longer victims of circumstance, but creators of their reality, grounded in clarity, intention, and action.

Emotionally

They develop emotional mastery, welcoming every emotion without judgment.
No longer avoiding or suppressing, they embrace the full spectrum of life—knowing that emotions are signals, not definitions.
Through this, they cultivate gratitude, love, and joy, not as fleeting feelings, but as daily companions on their journey of transformation.

A Life Aligned: From Rock Bottom to Renewal

My journey of transformation began the moment I made the hardest choice of my life: to come clean to my wife about my infidelity and my struggle with sex and pornography addiction.

Facing the real possibility of losing everything—my family, my career, and the life I knew—was terrifying. But it was also the beginning of something greater: a second chance, and a new life built on truth, integrity, and alignment.

Years later, I faced another defining moment—when I was asked to compromise my values during the Covid vaccine mandate. As a Fire Captain, I had to choose between my career and my principles.

I chose integrity. I chose alignment. And that choice ended my career in the Fire Service—but opened the door to the life I live now.

Relocating to Eastern Tennessee marked a new beginning. Today, I live a life of freedom, purpose, and harmony—coaching incredible clients, investing in real estate, training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and most importantly, being fully present with my family.

I’m here to help others step into their own transformation—to lead themselves and others with integrity, to live in harmony, and to thrive in abundance.

A Turning Point: From Breakdown to Breakthrough

In life’s most critical moments, we are given the chance to redefine who we are and unlock our highest potential.

For me, choosing truth over comfort was that turning point. When I committed to full honesty—especially with my wife—we rebuilt our relationship on a foundation of integrity and trust. That choice transformed our partnership, and it transformed me.

What followed was a ripple effect of renewal—my spiritual faith deepened, my health improved, our finances stabilized, and I stepped more fully into my role as a father, husband, and leader.

I’ve come to believe this:
The impact of your life is shaped by your willingness to confront your truth, shed what no longer serves you, and step boldly into alignment.

That’s the work I do with my clients—guiding them through their own turning points, helping them let go of limiting beliefs, and empowering them to reclaim and elevate their lives.

About Your Coach

 
 

About Your Coach

I’m an ICF-certified Leadership and Life Harmony Coach and a Certified Deep Transformational Coach. I’m here to help you live in harmony, lead with integrity, and thrive in abundance and transformation.
My mission is to empower you to align your life with your values and unlock your full potential through intentional living, bold leadership, and lasting transformation.

Before I became a full-time coach, I spent 15 years in the fire service, and when I left, I was serving as a Fire Captain Paramedic in California. I led emergency responses, mentored new recruits, and learned the power of courage, service, and high-stakes leadership—principles I carry into my coaching every day.

I’m also a multi-million dollar real estate investor, focused on long-term rentals and short-term vacation homes in the Smoky Mountains. My approach to investing reflects how I live my life: steady, intentional, and growth-oriented.

Since 2018, I’ve been training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and currently hold a purple belt. While I train like an athlete, I consider myself a martial artist—committed to discipline, humility, and lifelong learning. I also coach my kids in running, soccer, and Jiu-Jitsu, focusing on both their skills and character.

My wife Laura and I are raising our two kids on a 15-acre alpaca farm in East Tennessee, where we embrace family connection, outdoor adventure, and hands-on learning. We hybrid homeschool, get away to our short-term rental cabin in the Smokies, and enjoy the daily rhythm of life with our animals—alpacas, goats, chickens, dogs, koi fish, and a bazillion squirrels.

Laura and I also love coaching couples together, helping them create intentional, harmonious relationships rooted in communication, trust, and love. Our farm has become a place of transformation and renewal, where we host men’s retreats and nurse coach retreats led by Laura.

My life is rooted in faith, family, fun, fitness, and fluidity, and I live by this belief:
Now Is The Best Time To Be Alive. #NITBTTBA
