Life Coaching, Events, and Resources

I became a Director at a Fortune 10 company by 27 as a first-generation professional—and I learned quickly that career success doesn't automatically give you a full life. I've navigated rapid advancement, multiple cities, complex corporate cultures, and the constant pressure to choose between ambition and belonging. I know what it costs to compartmentalize yourself. What I've realized through my own journey and working with others: the people who thrive aren't the ones who sacrifice one for the other. They're the ones who learn to integrate their ambition with their need for genuine connection, stability, and community. They build lives that feel full because they refuse to reduce themselves to just their job title. I coach people who are climbing fast but feeling unseen—first-generation professionals, immigrants, people who've moved and started over, anyone navigating spaces where they're the first or only. My clients are ambitious and accomplished, but they're also asking: "Is this it? Where's the belonging part?" They want to figure out how to build authentic relationships, create stability while everything's changing, and lead a life that's truly theirs—not just the one that looks good on paper. This is the work I'm passionate about: helping you build a life where career success and genuine connection aren't opposites. Where you don't have to choose.

As a life coach, I help professionals and leaders navigate burnout, career crossroads, and life transitions with clarity and confidence. My approach blends strategic insight with emotional depth - supporting clients not only in setting goals but in uncovering the deeper patterns, beliefs, and values that shape their choices. With a background as both an entrepreneur in the mental health space and a mentor for young professionals, I understand the pressures of performance-driven environments and the cost of ignoring our well-being. My coaching is grounded in evidence-based practices and enriched by training in Aletheia Coaching and Somatic Experiencing. Together, we’ll identify what truly matters to you, build resilience, and create sustainable paths toward fulfillment.

As a certified executive and life coach, I help individuals navigate personal and professional transitions with clarity, confidence, and purpose. Clients often come to me feeling stuck, overwhelmed, at a crossroads, or ready to pursue a big goal, seeking a more grounded and fulfilling life. Life coaching areas I specialize in: - Major life transitions - Dating and relationships - Effective communication - Neurodiverse success strategies - Step-parenting - Building emotional intelligence Clients describe me as direct and honest, with a sense of humor that keeps things grounded. I say what clients need (not always what they want) to hear, in a way that lands and drives change. I challenge clients to face their blind spots and grow through them, while offering compassion and support. I bring warmth and structure to every session, helping you reconnect with your values, build resilience, and take meaningful action on your terms.

For most of my life, I struggled with severe physical, mental, and emotional challenges—ranging from catatonic depression and chronic fatigue to debilitating GI issues, fibromyalgia, and a profound sense of loneliness. When I hit rock bottom in 2015, I explored every modality I could find—from functional medicine, yoga, meditation, and breathwork to advanced biohacking, stem cell therapies, Ayurveda, Amazonian medicine, and psychedelics. Today, as I turn 40, I’m the healthiest and happiest I’ve ever been—and nothing brings me more joy than helping others reach that same level of wellness and fulfillment. I’m a certified Human Potential Coach, a certified yoga teacher, and a certified breathwork instructor. My personal healing journey, combined with years of rigorous research and experimentation informs the way I help clients transform their lives—whether they’re seeking relief from chronic conditions, lack of purpose and motivation or simply looking to optimize their physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. While I’m open to using any “hack” or quick fix when appropriate, I’ve found that true, lasting change comes from building strong foundations: clarifying your life purpose, cultivating supportive relationships, and developing nourishing day-to-day habits that work for you. If you’re ready to challenge old beliefs and embrace new approaches to wellness, I’d love to support you on that path.

As a Certified Empowerment & Motivational Professional (CEMP), I help individuals gain clarity, build confidence, and take purposeful action toward the life and career they truly want. Through my training with PARWCC and mentorship under Jay Block—one of the nation's leading motivational experts—I’ve developed proven strategies to help clients manage stress, reframe limiting beliefs, and ignite sustainable motivation. Whether you're feeling stuck, navigating a career change, or working through self-doubt, I guide you in turning mindset shifts into measurable progress. What makes my approach unique is the blend of empowerment coaching with real-world, goal-oriented strategies. I don’t just inspire — I help you unlock clarity, emotional strength, and confidence to act, even when the path forward feels overwhelming. If you're ready to reconnect with your goals and build momentum in your personal or professional life, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

Life is full of transitions: big and small. Some we choose, and some choose us. A new job. Moving to a different city or country. Becoming a parent. Ending a relationship. Loosing someone close to you. Picking up a hobby that lights you up again. Becoming ill. Every situation carries both opportunity and uncertainty and while it’s easy to see these moments as challenges to "get through", they are actually invitations to grow, to realign, and to step into a new version of ourselves. I know this not just from working in high-pressure environments like consulting, but from navigating my own personal and professional transitions and seeing how powerful these moments can be when approached with the right mindset. I moved to different countries without a job offer, stepping into uncertainty to build a life more aligned with my aspirations. I shifted from focusing solely on business success and advancing my career to becoming a certified coach and meditation teacher-in-training: a path that brought far greater meaning, balance, and purpose into my life, and that now enhances everything I do in business as well. Today, I coach professionals and entrepreneurs to embrace life transitions as opportunities for transformation, not just hurdles to survive. We work together to build clarity, resilience, and self-awareness, turning periods of change into launchpads for a more authentic, fulfilling life. Through a combination of strategic coaching, mindfulness practices, and deep personal inquiry, I help you not only move through transitions, but thrive within them, growing stronger, more intentional, and more connected to who you really are at every step. 🚀 How I Can Help You Through Life Transitions: ✔ Help you navigate major life changes with clarity and confidence: whether it’s a career shift, relocation, leadership transition, new parenthood, or the end of a relationship. ✔ Turn periods of uncertainty into powerful opportunities for personal growth and reinvention. ✔ Reconnect you with your core values, strengths, and vision, so you’re not just reacting to change, but actively shaping what comes next. ✔ Build emotional resilience, mindfulness, and self-awareness: the essential skills for navigating life’s inevitable ups and downs with strength and presence. ✔ Create a balanced approach to ambition and well-being, where success doesn’t come at the cost of your happiness or health. ✔ Offer a grounded, judgment-free space where you can reflect, recalibrate, and move forward with purpose. ✔ Support you in designing a life that feels not just successful from the outside, but deeply fulfilling from within.

A seasoned Executive, Advisor, and Coach with over 25 years of experience—including 17+ years at Alphabet—driving strategic partnerships, business development, and operational excellence. As a coach, I specialize in guiding individuals through pivotal moments of change and growth, empowering leaders to unlock their full potential and take purposeful, high-impact action.

My path to life coaching runs through the same high-pressure environments my clients are navigating. Two decades across Big Law, energy, higher education, and leadership development gave me a close look at what happens to high-performing people when the stakes rise and self-trust quietly disappears. The pattern is consistent: accomplished, self-aware professionals who have done the work, read the books, built the credentials, and still find themselves overthinking, second-guessing, or overworking instead of leading from a place of clarity. A graduate of Columbia Law School and Harvard University, where I majored in Biology, I am a Certified Life Coach, NLP Master Practitioner, and Positive Intelligence® trained coach, currently working toward my ICF PCC credentials. The methodologies behind the work draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mental fitness, and my own decision-centered coaching approach. Sessions go beyond strategy. The goal is building the internal capacity to trust your own judgment, particularly in the moments where the outcome actually counts.

I am a Certified Co-Active Coach (CPCC) and ICF ACC specializing in helping high-achieving professionals create a more aligned, fulfilled, and authentic life — not just a successful career on paper. My coaching blends deep personal growth work with practical mindset and behavioral change, grounded in both professional experience and lived transformation. Before becoming a full-time coach, I spent nearly two decades in demanding leadership roles at companies like Amazon and IBM where I learned firsthand how burnout, self-doubt, and emotional overwhelm can limit even the most capable people. As a life coach, I help clients reconnect with their inner compass: clarifying what truly matters, building emotional resilience, and shifting long-standing patterns such as perfectionism, people-pleasing, or fear of visibility. My style is compassionate but powerful: I create a safe space for honest self-reflection while also helping you take meaningful action toward a more grounded, confident, and intentionally designed life.

I’ve spent 25 years leading marketing, brand, and customer experience for companies like Nike, Target, Starbucks, Chase, and Best Buy. I help people and teams grow through complexity and change. My work has always centered on the human side of performance: what drives motivation, clarity, and sustainable success. Along the way, I’ve coached leaders navigating burnout, career transitions, and high-stakes growth moments. I believe our ability to thrive means being authentic to who we are. I’m an out executive, a husband, and an adoptive father who’s learned firsthand how to balance ambition with real life. I know what it’s like to feel pulled in every direction, unsure how to slow down without losing progress. My mix of corporate leadership, entrepreneurship, and life experience allows me to help clients find clarity, realign with purpose, and create a life that works as well as they do.
