Crises and life transitions have shaped me. My parents died when I was 23 years old, within two months of each other. As the oldest I took responsibility for a younger brother and sister. There have been transitions from a successful business career, to learning a new language in Costa Rica, to planting a church as part of a large team in Caracas, Venezuela, to doing the same in Madrid, Spain. Jesus Christ, the life source, has sustained me each step of the way.
The realization that God is already working in the life of each person with whom I speak has been revolutionary. I love to ask powerful questions that lead to transformation, initiated and facilitated by the Holy Spirit. I seek to discover with a client what God is already doing as we move forward.
In my experience, a life coach has helped me channel my thoughts and dreams to my personal life and ministry. I’ve been energized and fulfilled as I’ve helped others by coaching them in the same way.
My lovely wife, Kay, and I live in Waukesha, Wisconsin. We have adult sons, Greg and Ian, both born in Venezuela and now living in the United States.
