My elevator pitch from Linkedin is thusly…
I serve entrepreneurs by helping them sharpen their mind and problem solving perspectives so they can grow and scale their reach, save time and money. I do this through my private membership community using online webinar workshops, digital video training programs, and bi-annual destination retreats.
I have been particularly successful with business owners in the coaching, consulting, tech startup, hospitality, SaaS, and high-ticket professional service industries who are concerned with time freedom, market impact disruption, continuity retention and utmost value contribution to their customers and community.
My Mission
I deeply enjoy helping internet entrepreneurs go to the next level of their potential. I am on a mission to be the catalyst for change for people who have a strong desire to help improve the world.
Life and Work Timeline
1983 – The Exploration Begins in Dallas, TX
Day 1 of my baby journal: “Still tired from the move. Lets start tomorrow.”
1989 – Introduction to Apple Computers
My Mom (college professor) encouraged me to play with our Apple Macintosh II. I proceeded to print the universe by going through reams of paper and full black ink pages. I was not reprimanded.
1992 – Hard Work, Morning Routine, Money Acquisition
Had a paper route, learned responsibility and importance of clean socks. I woke myself up, got dressed, and delivered papers on my bike before sunrise. I think there were less criminals back then?
1995 – Analytical Thought Instillation
Learned HTML, played a lot of chess, went to a K-12th technology school encouraging creativity. I was a rebel and I loved it.
1997 – eBay $$, Junior Olympics, and I Got Fired
I made money (affiliate commissions) promoting this new unheard of website called, eBay. I competed in the junior olympics in TaeKwonDo. I was an intern for a network-television broadcast music design company (CNN, HBO, FOX, etc.). I sent an invoice (as requested by the owner) for 3k for making 3d illustrations of the companies logo and creating their website. I was immediately fired and was told, “the internet is just a fad and 3k was way too much money for my age.”
1998 – Learned the Art of Sales
Became a top sales rep for COMPUSA while running their Apple department. Played with computers even more. Apple was not HOT during these days by the way.
2000 – Got a “Real” Job
Started a corporate career with a traditional Advertising Agency in Dallas. Worked my way to the Director of Internet Marketing. Drugs, excessive alcohol, and frivolous spending was prevalent. The stress was heavy, the exploration outside of ‘work’ was deep.
2002 – The Turning Point
Got arrested for drug possession (serious charges). My world came crashing down. I recontextualized my perception of reality by experiencing the death and rebirth of the ego. My eyes opened. Consciousness exploded. It was a spiritual awakening that radically changed my life.
2004 – Societal Exit Strategy
The corporate exit and 100% self employed slave to my small biz clients. The hair loss commenced.
2004 – 2014 The Blind Naive Wanderer
Started companies, launched several products, services, worked with clients and taught students. Chased money. Experienced deep depression. Realized, “I ain’t got no vision!” Despite me crafting, formalizing, and executing hundreds of visions for clients!
2015 – Realignment & Core Empowerment
Fired my low tier clients, closed my nonpassionate businesses and got on track! Realized my life calling and purpose to serve, inspire, and empower others by encouraging open minded people to advance their awareness, question their perspectives, and expand their consciousness with Love.
