His education and training in Cornell University’s Certificate Program in Executive Leadership expanded his knowledge in using a strengths based approach to: Conflict Management, Enhancing Workforce Engagement and Optimal Performance Workshops. This equipped him with the ability to work with Dr. Dori Stiles to perfect the use of psychological assessments, focusing on individual professional development and extending to enterprise level corporate leadership workshops. The underlying goal is to awaken individuals to their human potential.

Practice Specialization
What he has learned in his 16 years of practice is that our personal and professional lives are not independent separate components, but are intricately intertwined and unique. Importantly, his is the only practice that has the knowledge and training to reconcile both of these. The truth is our issues in life crossover into both domains. Consequently, each dilemma may be addressed and integrated within a strengths-based approach to guide individuals to finding meaning in what they do, to work through a process of taking on a new perspective of how to leverage their gifts, and to perfect a pathway in life that has a sense of purpose.

His passion is to guide individuals of all ages who are confronting life stressors to clarity of purpose. This requires critical self-inquiry to crystallize new methods to enrich their lives. The ability to tap into their uniqueness may be expressed in both their personal and professional lives. The efficacy of this developmental approach offers clients greater hope and the capacity to envision new pathways enhancing a newfound purpose filled life.

He founded Crossroads Consulting, Inc. in order to meet the multifarious needs of others by adapting and creating a unique Hope-Focused Model developed from Savickas' (2005) innovative constructionist theory and the important work of Niles, Amundson & Neault's (2010) Hope-Centered approach.

And thus, Crossroads Consulting, Inc. was born.
