leaders transformed
You were designed to thrive as a vocational creative leader—not to struggle in isolation or despair. Whether you lead in your local church, in an artistic industry, or in an academic environment, you can serve others only to the degree your soul is resilient, strong, and sustaining. I help you achieve the kind of robust leadership spirituality you need to thrive in heart, at home, at work, and in the culture of today. I’ve helped hundreds of creative leaders live and lead from their vocational center in Christ.

creative leaders see the world differently
I’ve helped thousands of Creative Leaders Grow
As a fellow follower of Jesus, I know that creative leaders need a unique approach to establishing rhythms and habits that work at home, at work, and on the road. Yes, we’re humans, but we see the world in ways that are unique and powerful.
My doctoral research revealed that artistic professionals of faith learn best in community, establish new habits over time, and need fresh and sometimes unconventional approaches to their unique leadership and spiritual development.
Whether you are a filmmaker, writer, songwriter, designer, academic, worship leader, actor, director, pastor, or architect, there is something special in this community for you.
