About

I just quit my job at Amazon, where I spent nearly 18 years, to help others up-level their careers. I know I can help you too. My mission is to inspire people who who want to have an exceptional career. Meaningful work, whether you work for a company, big or small, or even go into business on your own, has the power to transform your life for the better. All that's necessary is the motivation to do so (that's what you bring) and a bit of know-how (that's what I bring). I lead with tech because that's where I come from, but my content is not tech-specific. Whether you're looking for your first job, looking to change careers, or trying to climb the ladder to the highest rung , I believe the most important thing is that we are intentional with our actions and strive to do the best we can, for the benefit of our family, friends, society at-large, and of course, ourselves.
