My father spent most of his career in leadership and organizational development. Growing up around that, I had no idea what that even meant, but he sure seemed to get a lot of meaning out of it, and had a lot of fun doing it. 

​

After being the high achieving and rule obeying son and student for the first 18 years of my life, I started to explore what it meant to get away from that, and spent close to a decade getting away from the small town I grew up in to find out what was true for me. This mainly meant travel and adventures, and doing some things that were probably riskier than they needed to be. 

​

Little did I know that what was supposed to be an adventure for a few months in Japan would be the start of my professional career, and the discovery of a place that felt like home on the other side of the planet from where I grew up. 

​

Achieving great results in my work meant I was quickly thrown into management positions, without really knowing what it meant to manage people, relationships, teams, business results. This piqued my interest in the work my father had been doing, and so I started to focus on people, leader and organization development in my own work. 

​

I’ll never forget the first day I had in training as an executive coach - the work resonated with me in a way far beyond anything I had done before. It was like the purpose of all of my previous experience, professionally and otherwise, had been leading to this work. I get to bring my sense of adventure to every engagement I have with clients. 

​

I define adventure as being at my edge. Let’s explore your edge - the edge of your comfort zone, the edge of your skills and abilities, the edge of your understanding, so you can build the bold future you want for yourself.
