I BELIEVE
Every leader is a teacher and to be a great teacher, one must first become a great student.
Leaders are role models and no leader can effectively lead others unless they first learn to lead themselves.
I believe every leader has a responsibility to be a Growth Champion!
Leadership is Earned
By serving, coaching, and empowering others!
I’m a family guy first!
I am happily married to my best friend, and together, we have three amazing kids (all grown). Our fam squad loves to do stuff—together.
We love being outdoors, traveling, and sharing experiences with close friends.
I drive a Jeep (mostly on weekends) because it’s fun. I am an Apple guy because it works. And I love a fine bottle of red because it makes me happy.
I journal—a lot! In fact, my daily commitment to quiet time has changed my life, both professionally and personally. I encourage all leaders to develop this practice.
I take my relationships seriously. Those who know me—know me well. I’m in it for the long haul and pride myself in being there for others when they need me. If you’re similar, let’s connect!
