From a Spark of Intention to a Movement of Choice
Think Live Choose, LLC was born from a realization that the most change starts with the simplest shifts in perspective and actions that lead to personal ownership of our choices.

I established this company to provide others the coaching I once needed.
It is driven out of a passion I have for leadership, critical thinking, mindset shifting, and taking agency in your life though the power of active decision making and choice.
My journey began on a farm in Kentucky, where my parents instilled in me a simple, powerful truth: work hard and give your all to your community. But like many, I lost my way for a time. I dropped out of college feeling like a "lost soul," searching for a purpose I couldn't yet name.
That search led me to a military enlistment, a "reset", that changed everything. For nearly two decades now, I traveled the world, rose to the rank of officer, and had the privilege of leading incredible small military teams to large interagency organizations.
In this time I completed a B.S. and M.S. in Psychology, received multiple certifications (leadership, engagement & communication, and advanced analysis), gained hundreds of hours in communication, leadership and team development education, and learn many life lessons from direct experience.
My mission was always the same: helping people find their path and realize their potential.
Today, I’ve distilled nearly twenty years of leadership and life lessons into three pillars: Think, Live, and Choose. I founded this company to help others navigate their own crossroads.
Whether you are seeking your purpose, building your leadership, or defining your next level of success, I am here to help you move forward with intent.

Collaborator & Owner of Graymatter Life Strategies
I joined Think. Live. Choose. because I believe people do not just need motivation to keep going. They need a stronger internal baseline to return to.
My path was shaped through nearly two decades in military intelligence, where I served in high-pressure environments, led teams, advised commanders, and learned what resilience often looks like from the outside. In the military, we are taught to endure, adapt, and bounce back. Those skills matter. But over time, I saw that the deeper work was not only returning to function after pressure. It was changing the internal foundation we return to in the first place.
That realization became the heart of the 4R Foundation Method™ I created for my clients at Gray Matter Life Strategies. Through Reassess, Redefine, Reconnect, and Rebuild, this framework helps people examine the beliefs, patterns, relationships, and systems shaping their lives so they can stop operating from survival, pressure, or inherited expectations and begin making choices from clarity, identity, purpose, and alignment.
My mission is to help others build a life that is not simply productive on the outside, but steady, honest, and deeply aligned on the inside. I am honored to help bring the Think. Live. Choose. mission to life through mentorship, strategy, and the framework that supports: helping people pause, examine what is driving them, and choose the next step with intention.
