Founder & CEO,
Serviam Institute

I’m a Catholic husband, father of three, graduate of Franciscan University, former collegiate athlete, certified high-performance coach, virtue coach, and trained and practiced as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

My years as a therapist gave me invaluable training in human behavior, relationships, emotional dynamics, evidence-based techniques, and helping people understand the patterns keeping them stuck. I don’t reject that formation — I bring the best of it with me. But over time, I became convinced that psychology alone couldn’t provide the complete framework I was looking for.

They loved God, desired holiness, and wanted to lead their families well, but they had never been taught how virtue is actually formed.

That realization led me deeper into Thomistic psychology and high-performance coaching. In St. Thomas Aquinas, I found a comprehensive understanding of the human person — body and soul, intellect, will, and passions — ordered toward authentic freedom and ultimately God. In performance coaching, I found the systematic pursuit of excellence: assessment, deliberate practice, habit formation, accountability, and measurable growth.

I founded Serviam Institute to bring these worlds together.

We combine the insight and relational expertise of my clinical background, the practical rigor of high-performance coaching, and the timeless wisdom of Catholic and Thomistic psychology to help men overcome vice, cultivate virtue, and become the husbands, fathers, leaders, and saints God created them to be.
