Welcome!

I’m a proud native Texan, husband, father, U.S. Army Infantry Veteran, author, vlogger, and blogger.

As a writer, I focus on two powerful subjects: Leadership (at all levels) and West Berlin, Germany during the Cold War (1945–1990). While it may seem like an unusual mix, both are intertwined and deeply personal to me. My time with the U.S. Army’s Berlin Brigade in West Berlin was life-changing. I served alongside some of the greatest leaders I’ve ever known—leaders who taught me the value of discipline, accountability, resilience, and the importance of leading oneself before leading others.

Those lessons shaped my approach to leadership and continues to drive my work today.
My core message: Leadership begins with Self-Leadership. Leadership begins with YOU!

True leaders are forged from the inside out, by individuals who take initiative, act with integrity, and set the standard for themselves which, ultimately, others will follow.

If you’re a current or aspiring leader, remember this:
You must first lead yourself before you can truly lead others.
