LIFE COACHING
I have had a rich life with many educational, personal, and professional experiences.
Besides being a certified life coach, I am a dad and family man first and foremost.
I am also a 20x Guinness World Records holder (achieved in the US and Africa), Master in Business Administration (MBA), former Fortune 500 corporate executive (25+ years), Taekwondo 3rd degree black belt instructor, certified personal trainer, certified strength and conditioning coach, certified nutritionist, certified skydiver (500+ jumps), expert snowboarder, have traveled to 30+ countries and lived in 4 of them, backyard beekeeper, volunteer court appointed advocate for abused children in the foster care system, and alumni of the FBI and DEA Houston Citizen’s Academy.
And yes, I am also a normal human going through the roller coaster of life. I have been broke, well off, moved to a new country with $1000 in my pocket, and succeeded! happily married, divorced, laid off from corporate jobs, been a corporate high performer and successful corporate executive, successful entrepreneur, failed entrepreneur, successful dad of a 15 and 12 yold, and advised and helped 100’s of students find corporate jobs in Fortune 1000s companies.
So, I have not only seen almost everything in life, but most importantly, I have experienced and learned from almost everything in life.
CAREER
I have an MBA and have had a prolific corporate career. I worked for more than 25 years in corporate America and non-for-profits in industries such as pharma, consumer package goods (CPGs), oil & gas, diversity & inclusion non-profits, leadership, retail, and advertising agency.
I have also moved around in different functions within large corporations having had roles in recruitment, diversity and inclusion, marketing, international business development, corporate culture transformation, retail category management, corporate communications, digital marketing, international marketing, consumer package goods product innovation, and advertising.
I have also had the fortune to travel the world and live/work in multiple locations like Latin America, Europe, and Africa, and have lived in England, Austria, Venezuela, and currently in the US.
I have helped hundreds of students and executives build their personal brands, resume, and executive presence to maximize their potential for finding corporate jobs, and helped them connect with relevant organizations.
Finally, I have transitioned from corporate to entrepreneurship so I clearly understand the pros and challenges of doing so.
HEALTH/ WELLNESS/ HOBBIES
I am a believer that success is not just about “things”, but rather about experiences, relationships, and being able to live a balanced and purposeful life that makes a tangible impact in other people’s lives.
And of course, money is necessary and helps a great deal in finding that balance, but it is in our search for meaning and finding joy in it that we find fulfillment and happiness.
I am lifelong fitness and wellness practitioner. I hold certificates in nutrition, personal training, strength & conditioning, Taekwondo instructor (3rd-degree black belt), and I am the holder of 20 official fitness Guinness World Records.
I also hold a skydiver license (500+ jumps), and am an expert snowboarder.
With my 15 yold son, I am also a backyard beekeeper helping him acquire basic entrepreneurial, social responsibility, leadership, and business skills.
I have run large multinational corporate fitness and wellness programs, and I am the co-founder of a corporate fitness & wellness program company targeted to large corporations.
I also run a weekly subscription Healthy Living newsletter on subjects like healthy aging, fitness, mobility, mental health, nutrition, weight loss, strength & conditioning, bodyweight training, and more.
