A mentor with valuable life experiences helping teens and young adults build confidence and purpose.

Jim is a father of three boys, and he understands firsthand the challenges parents face as their children navigate pressure, confidence, and independence. He approaches coaching with the same care, values, and perspective he brings to his own family - pushing young adults to build the skills, habits, and self-trust it takes to actually own their own life, not just get through it.

Athletics Coach

Before he was a coach, Jim played Division I lacrosse and served as team captain - he knows what it takes to compete, lead, and hold a team accountable from the inside, not just the sideline. He's coached football and lacrosse players through growth, setbacks, and successes for over 20 seasons, and he's still coaching lacrosse today.

Corporate Executive & Entrepreneur

Having spent years leading teams, navigating high-pressure business environments, and starting multiple businesses of his own, Jim understands what young adults need to succeed - not just academically, but in the real world. The greatest satisfaction he had in business was mentoring younger employees and helping them grow.

Certified & Credentailed

As a certified health & life coach, Jim helps young men and their families achieve balance, purpose, and actionable growth. His coaching aligns priorities, builds confidence, and develops self-trust-giving clients the tools to navigate life's transitions successfully. Jim received his certification through the Health & Life Coach Institute where he learned core competencies, ethical code, and professional standards. He is also a member of the International Coaching Foundation.
