About

I’m an entrepreneur by wiring and design, but at my core, I’m someone who simply loves helping people thrive. Most of my career has been in the nonprofit world—launching two businesses, starting three nonprofits, and leading a nationwide organization that impacted tens of thousands of college students. Those years took me across the country and around the world, helping other teams grow. They were deeply rewarding, but they also revealed the gaps in my own leadership and just how complex it is to truly guide people well.

That’s why discovering EOS was such a breakthrough moment for me. It was like someone flipped the lights on—I saw a much better way for leaders to simplify complexity, build stronger teams, and actually enjoy running their business. What inspires me most today is watching leaders reclaim clarity and confidence—not only at work, but in their personal lives too.

The work I do now is pretty simple: I help leadership teams get clear on where they’re going, align around how to get there, and create accountability that sticks.

On a personal note—I’m loyal to the places that shaped me—Chicago, where I grew up, and Kansas City, where I’ve put down roots as an adult. I’m a husband of three decades, married to my high school sweetheart and father to three amazing kids. We’ve built our life together around faith, family, food, and finding ways to bring joy into the room. I’ll leave the porch light on so you can stop by and join us sometime.
