ABOUT
After graduating college, I worked in engineering for almost 8 years before leaving to pursue a business venture in 2015. In 2016, I started working in education as a middle school math instructor. Educating others is where I found my niche.
I am passionate about empowering individuals to fulfill their God-given potential. Much of what I teach is based on my professional experiences in engineering, entrepreneurship, performing arts, and education. Today I empower students to live more purpose-filled lives through workshops, seminars, and keynotes that are tailored to the occasion.
