About Me
My life is dedicated to helping people reach their ultimate potential and encounter their destiny in a way that produces meaningful work for them. I endeavor to have a lasting impact upon humanity by influencing people to expect more of themselves, helping them create their unique plan of action, and providing resources that will assist the process. To that end, the services I offer apart from my day-to-day job include life coaching, specialized training programs, and public speaking. I am an unpublished (as yet) author working on completing my first book.

I'm currently looking for a new employment opportunity outside health care. My experience includes training, course development, event planning (large and small events), public speaking, marketing, administration, strategic planning, leadership development, personality profiling, graphic design, desktop publishing, writing and editing, publishing, coaching, crisis intervention, and children's ministry.

I would prefer to work in training, coaching, marketing, or strategic planning/business development.
