Driverseat

We're building the largest passenger transportation franchise in the world. Driverseat provides incredible opportunities for aspiring business owners to build a super scalable business that is designed to work in every community, rural or urban. 

My vision for the future is to build a company founded on transparency, authenticity and prosperity. Our renewed mission statement is "To create incredible opportunities and epic lives." 
We're refocusing and renewing our foundation to reflect what we've learned over the years as well as where we want to be in the future. 

Leveraging the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), we'll evolve from a founder led company to a systems led company. Processes will be simplified at every opportunity, technology will be leveraged to its greatest extent, data will drive our decisions and we'll solve business challenges with ease. Our team is and will continue to be the best in the industry, working toward a common vision.

Driverseat is North America's fastest growing transportation franchise. We offer shuttle services direct to consumer, to other businesses and to government agencies. Specializing in small group charters, Driverseat is your household name for all things transportation including airport ground transportation, wine and beer tours, wedding shuttles, corporate employee commuter shuttles, and microtransit solutions.

Driverseat is a passenger transportation franchise, which means that we move people for a living. 

But I'm not in the transportation business. I'm in the people business. Our mission is to create incredible opportunities and epic lives. Franchising gives you the opportunity to work autonomously with a proven system for making money, using a recipe that was developed by some smart people (namely… me in this case…)

Every day, I have the responsibility and privilege to direct the vision of our company, setting the course for years to come. I embrace servant leadership and believe that if people are going to spend more time in their work than they do with their family, they had better enjoy it. 

I love learning about people, and having the deeper conversations. I reject rhetoric and posturing. There are only so many hours in the day, and I want them to be filled with richness and realness. 

I guess I should add a bit about myself…

I have three young daughters, and I’m a very involved Dad. I have high expectations and want them to grow up to be strong, resilient and independent women who feel they can do whatever the heck they want with their lives. 

I love working with my hands - In 2019 I began a major overhaul on my house and have completely renovated it down to the wall studs… every room…

I’m extremely passionate about coaching others, which makes my role as franchisor a perfect fit for me. Every day, I work with entrepreneurs to help them grow their business. 

I love music and play the guitar. I’ve been dabbling with piano a bit and think it might be my next project. 

I’m great at sales, because I’ve never felt like I was selling anything. I present opportunities to people who need what I have, and partner with those who will fully invest in themselves and the brand.

Leadership Success Coach

RETAIN Parental Leave Certified coaches use evidence-based methodologies and practical tools to help support working parents and managers to navigate the 3 phases of the parental leave transition smoothly and sustainably. Coaches can be hired directly by the new parent or their employer. The direct and personalized support that RETAIN Parental Leave Coaches offer has been shown to decrease stress at work and home, increase communication with key stakeholders, support more equitable divisions of labor, improve sleep strategies, increase uptake of existing workplace resources, increase employees sense of mattering, improve health and wellness (including perinatal mental health), and ultimately help create a better experience for all.

Parental Leave Coach

If you’re leading a team today, you already feel it.

The pressure. The noise. The weight of trying to keep everything moving while wondering if any of it really matters.

Most people don’t need more information.
They need more truth. They are starving for wisdom.
Most teams aren’t stuck because they don’t know what to do.
They’re stuck because they’re afraid to face what’s already in the room.

That’s the work I do.

I help leaders stop hiding behind titles and performance.
I help teams have the conversations that change everything.
And I help organizations build environments people actually want to be part of.

This is not about becoming someone different.
It’s about becoming more of who you are.
Clear. Grounded. Whole.

I’ve led workshops for executives, frontline teams, and emerging leaders. I’ve facilitated tough conversations and guided people through moments they didn’t think they could walk through. I bring what I’ve lived—growing up on a farm, serving in the Marine Corps, being a father, and rebuilding my life from the inside out.

Nothing I teach is theory. I’ve lived it.

Topics I Speak and Facilitate On:

👉 Leadership That Feels Real – Leading without pretending
👉 Team Environments That Actually Work – Creating trust people can feel
👉 Emotional Ownership – We bring our whole selves to work
👉 The Conversations We Avoid – What silence costs and how to get honest
👉 Trust and Repair – Rebuilding what’s been broken
👉 Life and Work, Together – Leading like a whole person, not a split one

This work matters. Not just because it makes companies better—but because it makes people better. And when people get better, everything around them starts to change.

If you're tired of surface-level leadership training...
If you want something that hits deeper...
If you’re ready for your team to leave the room different than they walked in...

Let’s talk.

projectYOU

I lead immersive, high-impact sessions that help leaders recognize and interrupt unconscious bias, build psychological safety, and foster inclusive workplaces. Our workshops are scenario-driven, interactive, and grounded in real workplace dynamics. Through tools like MIRO boards, breakout sessions, and live coaching, I create space for honest reflection and practical behavior change. As a U.S. Marine Corps veteran and leadership consultant, I bring a mission-driven intensity and deep presence to every room I step into.

Through flexible learning formats, I support adult learners in applying these strategies directly to their careers, contributing to a stronger workforce in Rock and Green counties.

Adjunct Instructor

WisHope Recovery

As a Results Coach, I facilitate group sessions that help individuals in early recovery reconnect with who they are beneath the pain, shame, and survival patterns. Through guided discussion, storytelling, and reflection, I create a space where surrender is not weakness but the first courageous step toward healing. My work focuses on building emotional honesty, peer accountability, and practical tools for living with purpose. These sessions are raw, real, and rooted in the belief that when we stop trying to control everything, we finally begin to grow.

Results Coach 

Military Veteran Dad

As the founder of Military Veteran Dad, I help dads rediscover their purpose and reconnect with their families after serving. Coming home isn’t just a physical journey; it’s an emotional one. I believe that when dads fully show up for their families—with heart, vulnerability, and presence—they create the foundation for strong, resilient military families. Through storytelling, coaching, and community, I empower dads to lead at home with the same courage they showed in uniform. The mission doesn’t end when the uniform comes off—it just begins.

The Military Veteran Dad Podcast has a mission to bring every dad home and step into their best life.  We share stories from other Military Veteran Dads on their struggles, their wins, and wisdom and we do it weekly.

To all my fellow Americans, we didn’t just serve, we protected an idea.  

Not everyone came home from that service, but some of the ones who did are still at war, just in their mind. 

When you see a Veteran today, don’t thank us for our service.Tell us Welcome Home, you might just save a family and kids will grow up with mom and dad.  

If you are a Veteran Dad and didn’t come home in your mind, I have linked my podcast Military Veteran Dad in the comments.  

Over 400 episodes of stories and wisdom to help you cross that boundary.

Being a part of this this team this year has been amazing!  Been a while since I was part of something and it has been a great fit.
