A Journey of Curiosity, Learning, and Transformation
From a young fascination with health to becoming a bridge between ancient wisdom and modern science.
My journey has been one of unconsciously connecting the dots of health through learning and experience. Have you ever just been relentlessly drawn to something? This has been my story with health and the force behind it.
The Spark of Curiosity
Born with an Innate Fascination
From a young age, I was born with an innate fascination with health and performance. It was like I had this natural curiosity about how the body works - a deep, almost cellular knowing that there was more to understand about human potential and wellbeing.
But what truly catalyzed my journey was witnessing illness within my family and feeling powerless to help. Being too young to understand the nature of what these experiences would propel me toward in life, the desire to want to help combined with the fear of that happening to me drove me to want to excel as a health professional.
Looking back, without those lessons and gifts, I would not be in the position I am today to be able to help others. It is with this understanding that I move through life - the ever-curious individual who has made his professional goal to meet others on their health journey where they are, and be a resource and catalyst for change.
What, Why, How was what unconsciously drove me to investigate and understand more and more. It started with satisfying my own personal interests and desires and then evolved with the influence of those around me getting sick and feeling powerless to understand what was happening.
The Evolution Through Disciplines
Connecting the Dots of Health
My journey started in the world of exercise where everything was about performance. But I soon realized that SO many people who wanted an outcome were being limited by the fact that their health was the unaddressed thing holding them back. It was then I realized I needed to know more about how the body worked and to understand what could be done about it.
The Exercise Foundation
This opened the door to nutrition and biochemistry, which taught me how things worked on a variety of levels, from macro to micro. I learned the language of the body through understanding how systems worked and was taught the art of symptom analysis and client care.
The Clinical Expansion
Going through school and teaching afterward gave me a whole new perspective of the body that I could pair with exercise to really help people in what I thought was a complete package. Yet something was still amiss.
The Functional Medicine Phase
I wanted information beyond subjective analysis - I wanted to test things so I could verify outcomes and validate decisions in a more objective manner. Then functional medicine and lab testing came into my world as I also shifted my bandwidth to include more of a clinical illness perspective. A way to get to the real root cause resolution of things on a biochemical level.
The Realization
Again, when I thought I was at the ground floor when it came to helping people, something very obvious stuck out at me.
Beyond the Physical
Those with the greatest physical challenges also brought along these pathological psychological and emotional aspects to them. We would spend so much time talking about all of these things that created dis-ease in their hearts and minds. It was like the physical aspect of their illness was packaged with non-physical companions.
This pushed me into the realms of all things non-physical: energy work, psychedelics, emotional health, and more. I thought I had gotten to the end only to realize I was about to step into a MUCH bigger space I couldn't have known existed until I arrived there.
This is when the great current of life brought me another layer of education that you can't read about - you can only experience. My own holistic health challenges as a result of exploring much of the world of non-physical existence became a baptism-by-fire introduction into subtle energy and metaphysical existence.
It was at this point in my own life where not only did I have to explore things outside my current preview of understanding to try to help myself, it gave me something that really changes you as a healer.
Experiential Compassion
The Healer Becomes the Patient
My own health challenges created what I call "experiential compassion." Your own experience as a patient looking to fix something that you don't fully understand is especially humbling when you think you had much of it figured out.
This final stage deepened my understanding of biophysics, psychic work, and opened my eyes to the various traditional practices that have lost popularity within our institutionalized western medical system because they are seemingly "unproven by modern science" or are discouraged as quackery.
The reality is, they helped me heal, and have catalyzed the most recent stage of evolution within my existence because a very profound perspective has opened up to me.
It is ALL connected, all that appears physical is in fact, not solid, and all that is beyond our physical senses has influence over our physical self.
A New Paradigm Emerges
The reality we experience is done so THROUGH our bodies when it comes to health, but the inputs over what influences health are vastly more complex and interconnected than we are ever taught. This has become my mission and has defined my journey as to why I have created EVO.
My journey has been about evolution in all ways, even when it felt like regression. The only thing guaranteed in life is change, and health as we see and understand it needs to change if we are to become well as individuals, a society, and a race of people living on an interconnected planet.
My evolution as a health professional will only end when this lifetime of mine is over, so what I offer people is to help them walk in tandem with them on their health journey. I cross paths with people when there is a co-resonance and use my unique mix of education, skills, understanding, and perspective to help them by starting WHERE they are ready to heal.
It is unique for each individual and I use established science, interpersonal relationship development, and deep trust to teach them how to heal themselves through guidance, support, encouragement, and direct interaction.

Personal Philosophy
Health as Evolution
As humans, evolution is a constant through one's existence, AND as humans to regain health, we need to evolve our way of being. Look at the status of the average human on this planet and the planet itself. The parallel ailment we see there is connection, not random coincidence. It is intimately interconnected.
Without creating a finite, concrete, and narrow definition, my goal is to expose, decode, uncover, and make understandable all that COULD be wellness for an individual. There is no single path, and in that I invite you to join me and take personal responsibility, explore, and define your truth in what resonates and what you need to learn on this journey.
We have been living with various influences of institutional thinking driving the belief that health is hiding in a silo or that it is outside of you. I'm making it my job to teach, explain, understand, and communicate all that I have learned and will continue to learn from others I cross paths with along my journey.
Your Evolution Awaits
Together, we can explore what evolved wellbeing means for you and create a personalized path toward true health and vitality.
