About Me

If you had told my younger self that I would one day dedicate my life to leadership development, I would have thought for sure that you had me confused for someone else. Back then, I associated leadership with titles, authority, and telling people what to do—none of which interested me. But over time, mentors saw something in me that I didn’t yet recognize. They told me I was a leader.

At first, I resisted. Then I had a realization that changed everything: leadership isn’t about power—it’s about influence. It’s about how we show up, how we support others, and how we create meaningful impact.

My real breakthrough came when I was introduced to servant leadership—not just as a theory, but through the example of leaders who led with humility, vision, and a genuine commitment to the people they served. It was a lightbulb moment. Leadership wasn’t about position; it was about lifting others up, making tough calls for the right reasons, and shaping the culture around you.

For the past 12 years, I’ve worked in HR and Talent Development, coaching and equipping leaders at every level—from frontline managers to senior leaders. I hold a Master’s in Organizational Leadership and am a certified Provider in the Process Communication Model (PCM) and Compassionate Accountability. As an accredited coach through the International Association of Coaches, Mentors, and Therapists (IACTM), I specialize in helping leaders build self-awareness, navigate conflict, and lead with both confidence and compassion.

Beyond my career, my wife and I have six children, which means I see leadership in action every single day, guiding, teaching, and learning right alongside my kids. I also fought and beat cancer, an experience that continues to reshape my perspective on what truly matters.

I’ve seen firsthand how great leadership can transform teams, organizations, and lives—and how poor leadership can do the opposite. That’s why I do what I do. Because a team, a department, an organization, a culture—it will only ever be as strong as the people leading it.

If you’re ready to develop yourself, your team, or your organization into the kind of leadership that creates lasting impact, let’s connect.

My Methodology
Practical, Research-Backed, and Built for Real-World Leadership

If you’re here, you’re likely facing leadership challenges that training alone hasn’t solved—miscommunication, unresolved conflict, team disengagement, or the weight of leadership itself. You don’t need another lecture. You need tools that actually work.

That’s why my approach is practical, evidence-based, and immediately applicable.

How I Build Training That Works

With over a decade in Talent Development, I design leadership training that is:

  • ✅ Built on Core Adult Learning Principles – Engaging, relevant, and designed for real-world application.
  • ✅ Based on Competencies That Matter – I’ve developed a core leadership competency framework, integrating timeless and modern leadership research.
  • ✅ Rooted in Bloom’s Taxonomy – Ensuring leaders move beyond knowledge to real behavior change.

Grounded in Research & Proven Leadership Models

Leadership isn’t guesswork—it’s backed by decades of research and real-world results. My methodology draws from a number of renowned thought leaders and frameworks, including:

Leadership Thinkers:

  • Stephen R. Covey – The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.
  • Daniel Goleman – Emotional Intelligence and leadership effectiveness.
  • John C. Maxwell – Leadership as influence and The 5 Levels of Leadership.
  • Simon Sinek – Purpose-driven leadership (Start With Why).

Competency-Based Frameworks:

  • The Center for Creative Leadership (CCL) – Leadership development at all levels.
  • Harvard Business Review & McKinsey & Company – Research-backed leadership strategies.
  • Situational Leadership Model – Adapting leadership styles to team needs.
  • Process Communication Model (PCM) – Understanding personality dynamics and adapting communication.
  • Compassionate Accountability ® – Balancing connection and accountability to drive results.

I’ve combined these insights into a comprehensive leadership competency framework—ensuring that my coaching and training provide practical, results-driven strategies that leaders can apply immediately.
