Field Steward

I am a Developer driven by a deep calling to help individuals build their self-esteem. Having faced my own struggles with self-esteem, I have become a life experience expert in understanding how personal value is shaped. I believe that self-esteem reflects how we perceive our worth, often influenced by the interpretations and feedback we receive from others.

Throughout my life, I have gained a wealth of experience in various fast-paced and challenging environments. From growing up around livestock, machinery, and fire to working in fields like conservation, wildland fire management, and emergency response, I’ve developed a unique skill set. My career has included roles in ambulance and first responder situations, large machinery operation, construction, equipment troubleshooting and repair, and building system evaluation.

Despite the technical challenges I’ve faced, I’ve found that communication is often the most difficult yet crucial aspect of my work. Through my journey, I’ve discovered that active listening is one of the most powerful tools for helping others recognize their value. By truly hearing people, I can help them see themselves more clearly and, in turn, boost their self-esteem.

People inherently know why they are special, but they often struggle to see the value in who they are. I help them by identifying and reflecting back some of the special traits they reveal to me.

Do what matters. 

I rarely, if ever, share a personal reflection on LinkedIn. I was compelled to do this when I learned that a friend has a small glioma, a brain tumor. An incredible woman. Brilliant. Positive. Recently retired after years as a professor. Still young.

We can get completely consumed by business goals, growth targets, customer needs, and the never-ending list of “important” tasks.

And then life interrupts.

This hit home with the news of my friend.

In January, I cleared my calendar to attend a burial at sea with my sister for her son.

Last spring, I had two precious weeks driving my oldest brother from Arizona to Minnesota and having him stay with me for a few days. Two months later he was gone.

I put work on hold.
Those moments were not optional.
They were everything.
Business matters.
People matter more.

Do what matters.

Share any thoughts or experiences below. I'm sure you have had those moments too. Let's support each other in these times as well as in business.

AI Overwhelm Isn’t a Tool Problem. It’s a Direction Problem.

Business leaders are inundated right now.
-New AI platforms.
-New software.
-New promises of speed and savings.

Instead of momentum, many companies are experiencing chaos.
-Scattered experiments.
-Confused teams.
-No measurable impact.

Here’s what I’m seeing:
The companies winning with AI didn’t start with tools.
They started with clarity.
Clarity on:
 • What they want to grow
 • What’s slowing them down
 • Where they’re losing time or margin
 • What outcomes actually matter

AI is a powerful lever. A lever only works when you know what you’re trying to lift.
If your organization feels overwhelmed, the solution isn’t another platform.
It’s a strategic assessment.
-Get clear.
-Set direction.
-Then deploy AI with purpose.

If you’re feeling the pressure to “do something with AI” and want to do it intelligently, let’s talk.

Friday Fun. 
Was fun to catch up with some of my friends: Manny Steil and Bill Farmer at the recent Optimist meeting. Bill talked about moving from pessimism to optimism.  He is available for speaking engagements by the way. 
Manny is a legend in the industry in the area of communications and listening. I also call him the miracle man because I think it was two years ago, he had a brain bleed and his neighbors found him laying in the street. Their quick action saved his life.
