I walk between two worlds.

I was raised at the intersection of structure and creativity — the son of a disciplined executive and a working artist. That duality shaped everything that followed.

After graduating college, I moved from Michigan to Los Angeles, where I spent years working in the entertainment industry as a Producer, Writer, and Director. I came up through the system the hard way, starting as a Production Assistant and eventually working across major studios including Carolco Pictures, ABC, NBC, Disney, and Universal. Storytelling became my craft. Not just as entertainment, but as a way of understanding people, meaning, and transformation.

But something essential was missing.

Despite professional success, I began asking deeper questions about purpose, suffering, identity, and the unseen forces that shape our lives. Raised within a traditional religious framework, I respected its structure, yet felt drawn toward something older, experiential, and direct. What I was searching for wasn’t belief.

It was understanding.

Like many logical people, I approached spirituality with skepticism. I explored meditation centers, New Age teachings, and alternative healing practices, and found that much of what I encountered lacked rigor, depth, or accountability. The promises were big. The results were often shallow.

That changed in 1990, during my first visit to Hawai‘i.

What I encountered there wasn’t escapism or fantasy. It was a coherent worldview. One rooted in direct experience, relationship with nature, and personal responsibility. It made sense to my logical mind because it didn’t ask for belief. It asked for participation.

Over the next three decades, my life became an apprenticeship. Not in adopting an identity, but in learning through those much more wise and knowledgeable than myself just how humans perceive, navigate, and interact with unseen realms of experience. I studied indigenous knowledge systems, worked directly with many powerful elders and teachers, and immersed myself in AUTHENTIC practices that taught me one foundational truth:

No one heals you.
You learn how to heal yourself.

This understanding now sits at the center of everything I do.

What I offer

I do not perform healing.
I do not promise transformation.
I do not claim authority over your inner world.

What I offer is guidance in perceptual navigation — the ability to consciously explore inner landscapes, symbolic realms, ancestral memory, imagination, and meaning without losing grounding in everyday life.

Through private sessions, inner journeying, and storytelling, I help people:

• access insight they already carry

• develop a working relationship with their inner world

• restore balance between logic, intuition, and emotion

• reclaim agency over their own growth and healing

My background in storytelling matters here. Narrative is not decoration. It’s a map. Through story, metaphor, and symbol, people learn how to orient themselves, recognize patterns, and choose differently.

This is why my novel Ocean Spaces, Island Worlds is not separate from my work. It’s an instruction manual disguised as a story. As it was explained to me, my two worlds allow me to ingest ancient wisdom and assimilate this valuable information in ways that others can understand. 

Why this work is different

I was born and raised in the modern world.
I love 80’s music.
I raise children.
I pay bills.
I sit in traffic.
I value clarity, ethics, and accountability.

Ancient knowledge is only useful if it functions in real life. Inside relationships, careers, grief, responsibility, and choice. My role is not to preserve tradition as museum artifact, but to translate lived and proven wisdom into something usable, grounded, and human.

An invitation

If you’re seeking someone to fix you, I’m not your guy.

If you’re ready to learn how to navigate your own inner terrain with clarity, humility, and responsibility…welcome.
