My path to leadership wisdom has been anything but conventional. I've poured drinks as a bartender, trained clients as a fitness instructor, closed deals in sales, and guided strategy as a marketing consultant. I've called different countries home and built relationships across cultures. Each experience became a classroom for understanding human nature and leadership.

Along the way, I found wisdom in unexpected places - in the writings of mystics like Richard Rohr, in the symmetry of architecture, in the poetry of motion on a football field. What I discovered is that leadership truth exists everywhere, if we have the wisdom to see it. This diverse tapestry of experiences shapes my unique approach to transformation: finding universal principles in unexpected places and making them practical for today's leaders.

Today, I help leaders transform their organizations by applying these universal principles to create thriving workplace cultures. My approach combines hard-won practical experience with timeless wisdom, showing how love-based leadership can become a strategic advantage in today's business world. Leaders who work with me see increased retention, stronger innovation through psychological safety, and teams that perform better through authentic connection.

My vision is to revolutionize how we think about leadership by making love a strategic imperative in business. When we lead with love, we don't just create better workplaces – we create a better world, one organization at a time.

When I'm not transforming workplaces, you'll find me exploring and adventuring, where I spend my time at the beach and reading a book, or playing ukulele.
