The Fancy Titles "Bio"

Over the past decade, I've led multiple 7-figure operations across both military and corporate environments, built high-performing teams from the ground up, and served in executive leadership roles where strategy and people had to work in sync or nothing worked at all.

My background includes 20+ years in the U.S. Air Force where I led diverse, mission-critical teams and mentored hundreds of new leaders stepping into their first real leadership challenge. After retiring from the military, I transitioned into the private sector, eventually becoming a Vice President at a fast-growing aviation company, where I built their logistics function from scratch and developed performance models that connected day-to-day operations to contract value, resource efficiency, and profitability. 

Along the way, I've built award-winning teams known for top-tier performance and organizational impact.

But what I'm most proud of isn't the numbers...it's the people. Seeing someone I mentored go on to lead with confidence, empower others, and elevate their own teams? That's the real win. That's the kind of leadership cycle I believe in-one that continues to pour into the next generation of leaders.

 

MY STORY

 Before I ever led a team, I imagined a life built around impact. I dreamed of owning a business, and maybe playing pro golf on the side (still chasing that one). I took pride in my work, but once I stepped into leadership, things started to get real!

A few years into my military career, I hit a wall. I was passed over for promotion, given an average performance review, and felt like my leadership was spiraling. My team was underperforming, I was second-guessing everything, and I started to believe I just wasn't cut out for any of it. My peers were rising, and I was stuck.

That's when a mentor stepped in-a friend who saw something in me I couldn't see myself. He challenged me, believed in me, and helped me shift my mindset completely. The power of one person choosing to lift you up when you feel like you have nothing left-that changed my life. It taught me what leadership really is. Not about being in charge. About lifting people up. Creating change. Leading with influence, not authority.

Since then, I've been promoted into some of the toughest roles, led award-winning teams, and mentored hundreds of rising leaders. But what I'm most proud of is helping build a culture of leaders who care. Leaders who multiply their impact by building up people around them. 

Today, I'm a leadership coach and business owner. I help new and rising leaders step into confidence, build strong team cultures, and lead in a way that actually feels right. And yeah, on weekends, I'm still working on that golf dream, because I believe we should always be chasing something big, no matter how crazy it sounds.

 

What I Believe About Leadership

What's always mattered most to me in leadership isn't the job title or authority that comes with it. It's 100% the people. It's seeing someone who once doubted themselves take on a challenge and realize they're more capable than they thought. It's watching a team that once struggled start to thrive because someone chose to lead differently. Those moments are what make all the hard parts worth it.

I believe in leadership that builds. That listens. That doesn't just drive results, but creates a culture where people want to show up and do their best work. I believe the way we lead ripples out further than we'll ever see. And when we lead well, we help others rise, and that's where real impact begins.

Leadership to me is something that multiplies. It starts with you, but it doesn't stop with you. If that resonates with you, we're probably going to work really well together.
