About Me
Here’s what you need to know about me…
- I’m extremely passionate about helping others. I’ve faced a few traumatic events over the years as I’m sure almost all of us have. But I’ve come to learn that when life throws your curve balls, you can create the best version of yourself if you keep swinging.
- I will never stop sharing my knowledge when it comes to anger management. When I got started in 2011, I felt like I had imposter syndrome. I graduated with a degree in Business Marketing. I thought I didn’t have the knowledge or the resources to teach people how to control their anger, and become the best version of themselves. So now everything I’ve learned, I share with you. You won’t have to do it alone!
- My kids are my world. Yes, I’m that dad that has a million photo’s and videos of my kiddos in his phone. I don’t see anything wrong with that! They are my backup singers on road trips, dance partners, and #1 food critics. Honestly, just trust me, you’ll love my kiddo’s too.

Was it hard to raise 2 babies on your own without your wife and family?
Yes it was, but I had to remember that God doesn’t make mistakes. Secondly, I was so focused on being angry with God for taking my wife that I had to remember that there was a bigger purpose for me. I had to wrestle many nights with my anger. Over time I had to be grateful for the Purpose I had of being a dad, and that certainly helped me become happier.

Do you offer coaching?
Yes I do!
How did you get started with Anger Management?
After my dad passed, I was angry with God and had no direction. I always listened to my dad, and he always stated, “You have one day of emotions, but after you have to plan.” So, I had my cry and a few days later my Fraternity brother invited my wife and I to dinner. His wife worked at the D.A.’s office as an attorney and she stated that the county needed more men to teach court ordered anger management. I asked what were the qualifications, and I met them. I just needed to get certified to teach it. Her sorority sister has her PhD. and gave a good word to the director at the time, and the rest was history.
