MY MISSION: My mission is to make a difference in society. To equip over 10 million parents with actionable tools in order to guide their children to greater achievements without getting frustrated.

The following expresses some important parts of who I am and what I believe:

I believe that every experience in life, the good and the bad and the ugly, can teach us something of value if we are Mindful. In my challenging times, I Believe that everything is a learning event. I believe that every person is created for a positive purpose. I believe that investing my time Empowering people is always a good use of my time and resources. I believe we make a better world when we make stronger families. I believe that with the right tools and Strategies, we can each handle whatever life hands us. I believe every moment with our child is a Teachable Moment, whether it's through observations or Mindfulness.

MY BACKGROUND: I met my wife on the dance floor while I was in college. I have been married since 2007. Together we are enjoying raising our two school-aged children, a son and a daughter in Vaughan Ontario.

For more than 8 years I've worked in community centers in the City of Vaughan as a Basketball Head Coach, Day Camp Sports Counselor, Assistant Day Camp Director, Day Camp Director and Day Camp Coordinator. Through these experiences, I have developed my passion for mentoring children and coaching parents.

Volunteering is an important part of my life as well. Some of my activities include serving food for over 200 homeless people on Christmas day. Volunteer as a basketball coach since 2008 to 2020.

I'M A RECOVERED YELLER: I have 3 children (a 33 year old King, a 17 year old Prince and my 14 year old princess) I've been there, in the same shoes as parents who struggle with temper tantrums, kids not listening, whining, sibling battles and more.

This is the catalyst for developing Mindful Parenting ToolKit, it was my own realization that I had turned into the “yeller” that I swore I would never be. I became determined to find a better way. A healthier, happier means of raising great kids without losing control. I immersed myself in the study and principles of Adlerian Psychology and Positive Discipline. What I learned, was life-changing, Family changing and Powerful. What I knew, however, from my experience working in the community was that parents needed an easy-to-understand process and actionable steps so they can feel composed and confident guiding their children to greater achievements. This is where I knew I could make a difference.
