Purpose-Driven Careers live here.
Whether it's figuring out your passion or purpose, navigating the corporate maze, growing as a manager and leader, or cutting through the fog of entrepreneurship, this is about helping you reach your potential. My guests and I will provide you with the awareness and actionable insights you need to succeed.
During my twenty years in leadership in companies such as JPMorgan Chase, Allstate, and LegalShield, I had the opportunity to create and guide high-performing teams through delivering double-digit growth, mergers and acquisitions, offshoring, outsourcing, startups, and well over 300 partnerships.
By way of background, I was a late education bloomer, gaining my undergrad from the University of Phoenix at the tender age of 34 :). From there, I went on to pursue my Executive MBA from the Kellogg School of Management. I serve on the DeVry University Board of Trustees, am the author of Success on Your Own Terms: 6 Promises to Fire up your Passion, Ignite Your Career and Create an Amazing Life and preside as the CEO of The Corelink Solution, which also the operating company for Holy Culture.
I believe in God’s unique plan and potential for each human being. That is why I do what I do.
