"This is a space to slow down,
soften, and come home to yourself.”
I’ve always been drawn to what’s real.
Even as a kid, I wanted to know the truth beneath the surface—of people, of pain, of the world. Over time, that curiosity turned into a calling.
For the past 5+ years, I’ve worked with individuals navigating change, crisis, growth, and awakening. I’ve sat with people in their most raw and tender moments, helping them reconnect with themselves and their inner wisdom.
My path has included work in coaching, mindfulness, somatic presence, and spiritual work—but what has shaped me most is life itself. Becoming a father. Grieving. Healing. Listening deeply to the quiet voice inside and learning to trust it.
That’s the space I offer to others now.
What I Believe
You are not broken.
You carry a deep intelligence that knows the way home.
Healing happens in presence, not in pressure.
There’s a rhythm to your life—and when you listen to it, things begin to align.
Outside of Sessions...
I live in Laguna Beach with my wife, daughter and dog (Indigo), where our days are filled with sunshine, tea ceremony, dog walks, and barefoot time in nature. I’m grounded in simplicity, inspired by connection, and fueled by beauty.
You can often find me practicing yoga, dancing at a silent disco, or meditating at the beach.
This life is sacred to me—and it’s an honor to walk beside others on their journey too.
If You Feel the Pull
I’d love to connect.
Whether you’re navigating transition, awakening, grief, or simply want to feel more like you again—this work can meet you there.
The Meaning Behind the Mark
The symbol you see throughout this site is an unalome—an ancient representation of the journey of awakening. It illustrates the winding path we walk: the loops of confusion, the lessons, the detours… and ultimately, the return to center.
To me, it’s a sacred reminder:
That growth isn’t linear.
That even in the mess, there’s movement.
That we are always, in some way, coming home to ourselves.
It’s more than a logo.
It’s the essence of this work.
I never dreamed that my passion project would become my career.
After a few years on my own healing journey, I saw that the next generation was dealing with similar mental health challenges and I knew I wanted to help. I started a mentorship program at my old high school called the Wisdom Collective and brought alumni friends together to help teach our younger selves what we wished we had known to make the transition from highschool to the real world a bit smoother. Even though I was still finding my own way, I learned that you can make a huge difference in someone’s life even if you’re only a few steps ahead.
This passion project quickly manifested an opportunity to work professionally as a personal development coach and eventually led me to starting my own practice.
