Prez & Founder of DudeChat with a Master Certification in Social Therapeutic Coaching and a Bachelor's degree from the University of Cincinnati in Communications.

 

I have been on the marriage journey with my wife Caroline since 2011 and we’ve been parents (a party of 3) since 2013. I cherish spending time with my family, planning trips and exploring the world together. I enjoy being outdoors and connecting with nature. I’m an avid reader, student and budgeter. I work full time in sales and I’m a part time gym rat.

​

DudeChat is special to me because it's a unique space where men come together with the intention of engaging in conversations they have had difficulty expressing in other social situations. I show up for me, for other men in need, and for the people I love. Consistency compounds overtime and I believe there is always room to learn and to grow.
