I created Kaleo Coaching to build others up to the good work they are called to. As a Gallup Certified Strengths Coach, my favorite tool to use for both teams and individuals is the Clifton Strengths Assessment. I have seen a little bit of every type of work environment, and had a handful of titles ranging from Missionary, Pastor, Operations Manager, and Business Coach (among others). Ultimately the work I am "called" to, or invited to (hence the name Kaleo) has much more to do with what I have to offer. I love coaching others to the same empowering realization that they can provide a good work, and will be most successful when using their natural talents.

Using proven methods, and with my unique background, I will coach you to develop strengths awareness in people and teams to accomplish work and life goals. I am available for dynamic workshops, presentations, or one-on-one coaching packages.

​

My desire as your coach is to build you up in your strengths so you can provide the good work you are called to!

I began my career as a service technician for Leiber Heating and Air Conditioning, a company that I am now a part owner of, before joining the Marine Corps shortly after September 11, 2001. Over the next twenty years, I served around the world as a United States Marine, leading at every level — from platoon to battalion command and serving as the Inspector General for II Marine Expeditionary Force. I deployed multiple times in support of combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan and took part in multilateral training exercises throughout the Pacific.

 

Those experiences taught me powerful lessons about leadership, engagement, and purpose — lessons that now shape my work as a coach and business owner. After retiring as a Lieutenant Colonel, I became a certified Gallup CliftonStrengths Coach and I support Kaleo Coaching to help individuals and organizations uncover their unique talents, align their teams, and pursue the meaningful work they are called to do.

 

Today, I continue to support individuals, businesses, and nonprofits through strengths-based development that fosters community, trust, and purposeful momentum.
