I’ve always believed that sales is more than numbers — it’s about building trust, solving problems, and creating opportunities that change lives. 

For over a decade at CHG Healthcare’s CompHealth division, I’ve had the privilege of helping more than 240 surgeons find the right fit for their careers while supporting hospitals in critical need. 

Along the way, I’ve been honored with Presidents Club recognition 10 times, generating $40M+ in gross profit, and earning the CHG Difference Maker Award for community impact.

My path here hasn’t been a straight line. Before healthcare, I built an e-commerce company from scratch, learning SEO, digital marketing, and customer experience long before they became buzzwords. 

Later, I launched a consulting business that guided 200+ leadership and business coaches in scaling their online presence — even collaborating with elite programs like Amy Porterfield’s (Best Selling Author of 2 Weeks Notice) Momentum Mastermind. 

Those experiences taught me how to blend sales strategy with digital innovation, and how to help others grow.

Today, I combine that background with a deep passion for coaching and mentorship. Whether it’s helping a physician navigate the locums market, guiding a new sales rep to confidence, or speaking on stages about value propositions and LinkedIn strategy, I thrive on empowering people to succeed.

Outside of work, I’m a lifelong learner and investor — managing rental properties, writing on Medium (where my articles reach 300+ readers daily), and hosting podcasts that connect communities. At the core of it all is one simple belief: when you put people first, results follow.

The Ikigai Guy ☕️ • Author & Ikigai Coach 🧭 • Ikiquest+ 🌀

After a 30-year career as a senior leader and executive in Fortune 500 companies, I grabbed an opportunity to take early retirement and do what I had always wanted to do. I support people living to their purpose, and companies bringing their purpose to their products and their people. 

I started VLURU to do just that.

VLURU means versatile guru. Every person and every company is different. Bringing your purpose into all you do takes several different disciplines and skills. VLURU brings an extraordinary variety of tools and techniques to help you achieve your personal and or business goals. 

My journey:

I’ve helped hundreds of people and businesses find fulfillment in their lives, careers, and products throughout my career through coaching, consulting, and mentoring. In the midst of my career transition, I was able to put a name to the practice of helping people find their purpose, Ikigai (ee-key-guy). 

I’m not the first to talk about Ikigai and I’m certainly not the most talented writer. I am, however the first to explain how Authenticity, Purpose, and Harmony work individually and together to cultivate a complete understanding of Ikigai. And maybe more importantly, I am the first person to come at these topics from the perspective of someone who has spent decades studying personal transformation.

I've created a process and framework to help people find fulfillment by uncovering and living into, their Ikigai.
