For nearly three decades, I’ve empowered professionals, business owners, and innovators to craft lives of purpose, balance, and extraordinary success. As a lifestyle improvement expert based in Seattle’s vibrant business and tech hub, I blend my expertise in professional achievement, fitness, nutrition, and personal achievement to help clients achieve vibrant health and ambitious career goals. My holistic coaching is not based on cookie-cutter solutions, but rather I deliver personalized plans that transform challenges into strengths.
My Journey of Resilience
Growing up in poverty with a deeply troubled father who abandoned my family when I was nine years of age, I navigated an unstable childhood, moving across the USA and struggling to find roots. Since my teens, I’ve battled autoimmune conditions—arthritis, chronic joint pain, two knee replacements, and chronic fatigue—alongside mental health challenges like anxiety and depression. Through determination, I overcame these hurdles, maintaining peak physical condition with healthy nutrition, exercise, and recovery practices. These experiences fuel my passion to empower others to transform adversity into resilience, designing lives of vitality and achievement.
Professional Expertise
As a University of Washington graduate living on Mercer Island near Seattle, I bring a diverse set of experiences and achievements to my coaching:
- Financial Services: As a former registered financial advisor (FINRA Series 7, 63, 65 stock broker and investment advisor), mortgage loan officer, and national sales development coach for a financial services firm, I’ve invested in the skill of coaching to transform lives and careers for advisors, loan officers, and real estate professionals through crafting high-impact habits, referral network building and branding strategies.
- Tech and Business: Residing in Seattle’s tech hub, I guide tech professionals, startup leaders, and creatives both locally and nationwide to build leadership skills and strategic roadmaps for success. My network includes professionals and leaders from Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and Tesla as well as entrepreneurs and venture capital fund leaders.
- Fitness and Wellness: As a side-passion for two decades as a fitness coach, programmer, and competitor, I’ve helped over 1,000 clients—from world-class athletes to busy professionals—achieve health goals through custom fitness and nutrition plans.
- Speaking and Ceremonies: I’ve delivered informative and inspiring messages at corporate events, community gatherings, weddings and memorials, tailoring each to resonate deeply.
- Non-Profit Leadership: Served for over fifteen years in non-profit leadership from board chairman to coach and counselor to hundreds of individuals, families and groups.
