How I got here
Growing up, my biggest interests were math and the human mind. So in college, I got degrees in both psychology and poker (one formal, one less so). One taught me what makes people tick, the other taught me how to manage risk and make decisions under pressure.
Before committing 7 years to an advanced Psych degree, I decided to explore the startup world and found my way into growth marketing. I loved everything about startups right away—the vertical learning curve, the against-all-odds audacity, the scrappiness, the camaraderie—and I stuck with it. As I built and scaled teams at different companies, two things became clear: I loved everything about people development and team cohesion, and I got no spark from marketing.
That realization ultimately led me to coaching. I immersed myself in formal education, got accredited with the Coaches Training Institute, then earned my “advanced degree” with the Conscious Leadership Group while I built my practice.
When I’m not coaching, you will find me hiking in the redwoods with my wife and son, playing with my cats, or feeding my competitive spirit at the poker table or on the basketball court.
