Welcome!

I’m so glad you’re here.  Like many gay and queer men, I grew up learning to hide large parts of myself to fit the script others had written for me. Long after coming out, I still prioritized others’ approval through achievement and conformity rather than trusting myself and listening to my intuition. Despite appearing successful and happy on the outside, I was silently battling low self-esteem, distorted body image, substance use, internalized shame, and issues with sex and intimacy.

A major life and career transition woke me up to the fact that I was still living someone else’s story, squandering my own joy, and holding back my talents and gifts. My ongoing personal journey has been one of self-discovery, building self-compassion, and learning to honor all parts of myself. While none of us will ever have it all “figured out,” the work I’ve done, including with some amazing coaches, has helped me become more content with myself, a more confident leader, and a more connected, more present, and happier man.

Today, helping other gay men on their journeys of self-actualization drives my coaching career. Together, we explore identity, self-image, health, wellness, gay culture, career, and personal meaning to create a life grounded in values and a greater ability to lead and improve the world.

Ready to start your journey toward a more fulfilling, authentic life? Schedule a complimentary session today, and let’s begin unlocking your true potential—not only for your own sake but to shine your light brightly for our community and a world in need.

The Triple-l Model

The Triple-L Model is a simple framework for exploring the most fundamental questions about who we are, what drives us, and the impact we want to have on the world. While each client’s needs are unique, I’ve found that every coaching journey touches on each of these areas to varying degrees.
