Additional Coaching Interests
I am what some might call a “recovering academic.” The last thing I ever thought I’d be doing was working in ministry, but here I am. And it’s been the most fulfilling twist in my journey.
My professional path took me through a doctorate in music composition, teaching at five universities, and building successful businesses as a composer, educator, piano technician, and speaker.
And let me tell you, life is full of surprises. I had thought my talent stack was for teaching in higher education and writing music no one would ever hear. Turns out, it was for something way deeper. God transitioned me from the classroom into a new chapter to serve through worship & music leadership, pastoral work, public speaking, teaching, and coaching. Presently, I have the privilege of walking with those who are ready to step into the change and growth they have always known they are capable of, whether in business, ministry, or daily life.
What I love most about coaching is helping people unlock their creativity and break free from the mental anchors that hold them back. Whether I’m working with a business owner, a pastor, or a lay leader the challenges are very similar. And then we get to see the transformation when they start flourishing in ways they never thought possible.
Having completed extensive training in Organization and Relationship System Coaching (ORSC) and coaching professionally since 2015, I’ve had the great fortune of witnessing the power of coaching on many occasions. If you are feeling that nudge toward growth, that inner desire for more, I’d love to support you in finding your way to your next breakthrough.
