I was trained by, and previously worked with, Evangelium Consulting Group, where Kyle also began his journey in organizational health. I apply the Lencioni approach to building healthy teams in my current role with the Diocese of Kansas City–St. Joseph in Missouri. I believe in this approach enough to do the hard work it requires within my own team, where effective collaboration is mission-critical. I find it both fun and fulfilling to help other leaders and their teams get healthy and execute their mission fruitfully. Healthy teams multiply talents and skills beyond what’s possible in silos, and these sound business practices are essential not only in non-profits but in any work done for a higher purpose.

My wife and I have 10 children and recently became grandparents. I love the outdoors and enjoy hunting, hiking, and camping with my family. I’m also an avid strategy board game player and a student of game theory.
