I’m Tim — a U.S. Air Force veteran, coach, and experienced leader with over 21 years of combined military and corporate service. I started my coaching practice to support people through life’s most challenging transitions — not just veterans or first responders, but anyone facing change, uncertainty, or a loss of direction.

My mission is rooted in purpose, growth, and transformation. I understand what it’s like to navigate identity shifts, emotional challenges, and major career transitions — because I’ve lived them. From leading in high-pressure environments to rebuilding life in the civilian world, I’ve learned that true strength comes from resilience, self-awareness, and a clear sense of direction.

I bring a strong academic and professional foundation to my coaching work, holding a Master of Business Administration in Information Security Management from Jones International University and a Master of Arts in Security Management from American Public University System. My experience is further supported by specialized military training in leadership and development as a certified U.S. Air Force Training Instructor.

Through one-on-one coaching and personalized guidance, I help clients:

  • Support men in navigating personal challenges such as identity, emotional health, relationships, and life purpose — empowering them to lead with confidence and resilience. 

  • Build mental and emotional resilience to handle stress, adversity, and life’s uncertainties including civilian and corporate settings. 

  • Rediscover their identity and direction — helping them gain clarity, confidence, and a renewed sense of purpose. 

  • Help military members reconnect with who they are beyond service or rank. 

  • Strengthen relationships by improving communication, emotional intelligence, and personal growth. 

  • Achieve financial freedom by guiding individuals and couples out of debt and helping them build sustainable money habits

This isn’t just life coaching — it’s purpose-driven coaching for those ready to move forward but unsure where to start.

Your past experiences matter. But what you do next matters even more.

I draw on years of leadership, resilience, and real-world problem-solving to help people from all walks of life rediscover their purpose, overcome obstacles, and unlock their full potential. No matter where you’ve been or what you’re facing, you deserve to live with clarity, confidence, and direction in the path ahead.
