I have been deliriously happily married for 20 years to my beautiful bride, Amárillys, and a proud dad to three amazing boys (Gabriel, Joel, and Liam). They are my greatest joy and inspiration. I have also had some tough trials and suffered from hard losses. From being a former drug addict and divorced in my late twenties to a pastor to losing my 17-year-old son in a tragic plane crash in 2019 (read more about Gabriel on The Inspiration page) to inspiring people to be courageous humans.

I have lived a very layered life. At 12 years old I faced living with a mother that suffered from suicidal ideation, which on two occasions almost cost me my life. From my teens into my late twenties I overcame drug abuse, including a nine year stretch of using Meth. During our marriage together, Amárillys and I have experienced a miscarriage and two sons born prematurely (Gabriel at 3 lbs 12 ozs & Liam at 1 lb 14 ozs) because of her life (and theirs) being threatened by a pregnancy disease. While giving birth to our middle son Joel, Amárillys went full-term but had great difficulty waking up from the anesthesia. There have been many other scary moments and setbacks. We've also had some amazing life experiences and wins!

I have learned the most successful people in the world struggle with fear, gratitude, making courageous decisions, and being clear about what they REALLY want out of life. As a result, I am passionate about continually growing personally, relationally, and professionally no matter what challenges come my way. My highest goal is to help others recognize their innate courage, creative genius, and compassion to make a difference in the world. I am here to help you transform your life! If you have a strong desire to do the same for other humans, let’s connect!
