After 28 years in manufacturing and supply chain roles in the US Army and Fortune 500 companies, I started my coaching company in 2012. I chose ActionCOACH because of the simplicity and scope of the ActionCOACH toolkit and the community of other coaches around the world who continue to push the industry forward into the future. I co-founded ActionCOACH of Madison, LLC in 2014 which grew to include ActionCOACH Dane County, LLC and ActionCOACH Milwaukee #1, LLC. In October of 2023, Beth and I became sole owners of ActionCOACH Milwaukee #1, LLC. We’ve grown our business by using our own ActionCOACH tools and processes. I’m a member of the ActionCOACH Global Hall of Fame, and a multiple award-winning coach. When I’m not working, you can find me on a golf course somewhere or at Disney World.
