I have been a mental health counselor since 2016. Before that I worked as a civilian for the Air Force for 12 years. My primary job was analyzing data of F-16’s, almost like being an F-16 counselor, trying to understand what was making it difficult for them to soar high and complete their mission.

I started my education by earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from Weber State University. Shortly after I began working for the Air Force. During my time there I earned a Master’s Degree in Business Management and Leadership from Webster University. It turns out I still didn’t get enough schooling to be satisfied so I started paying attention to what I was interested in learning. I discovered I was passionate about growth and human potential, which led me to receive a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from THE University of Phoenix.

Recently I have been studying and becoming trained in various forms of psychedelic assisted therapy. I have completed the psychedelic certification program from the Integrative Psychiatry Institute in June of 2023. 

Aside from my professional life, I spend most of my free time with my wife and two dogs. I like getting out in nature, woodworking, and learning as much as I can.
