An eclectic heart, special operations veteran, and dedicated clinical mental health counselor with a lifelong commitment to human potential, wellbeing, and service. Over 33 years, I have followed a calling through hospitality, military intelligence, nonprofit, and social services while pursuing advanced studies in psychology, mental health, and spirituality. This path has been filled with profound love, peace, joy, laughter, wisdom, friendship, and community. Yet it has also traversed the depths of death, deprivation, pain, depravity, exploitation, and malevolent corruption. Through these experiences, I have been humbled to work through multiple injuries and chronic pain, navigate my own mental health struggles, and face the disorientation of existential angst and spiritual crisis. Each passage through discovery and darkness has deepened my compassion, broadened my perspective, and strengthened my conviction that healing is not the absence of suffering but its conscious integration into a larger, more meaningful whole. My aim is to expand integrative and accessible pathways to sustainable wellbeing for both individuals and communities. By combining emerging technologies with care that remains both personal and patterned, I seek to position this work on the living edge of holistic and innovative mental health practice.
