I've been fascinated by the diversity of human interests, talents, and preferences since I was a kid, when I was endlessly curious about why different people could be so naturally drawn to such different things. I didn't know then that this fascination could eventually become the foundation of my life's work.


After quite a few detours, I eventually studied psychology as my major in college.

In a scholarship application, I wrote about something that had been quietly living inside me for years:

If we really have multiple lifetimes, I would come back to Earth again and again to help people who want to do something they love find work that is right for them.

I got the scholarship, and I eventually even transferred to what I read was the No. 1 university for psychology in the US — UC Berkeley. Despite my psychology education, my curiosity about people, and access to what I read was the best career center in the nation, I still got lost.


Real life brought its own pressures and responsibilities. I tried different career directions. I took mainstream personality and strengths assessments. I sought career advice. I took jobs that seemed to make sense based on what I learned from the above.

Some of those experiences were somewhat useful.

Others became expensive detours.

Eventually, I found myself in a place where I had almost completely forgotten the mission I had written about years earlier, and I was miserable in misaligned work.

My breakthrough came after looking much more deeply at how my mind naturally works and which limiting beliefs had been distorting the choices I was making.

Through that process, I eventually recognized that coaching for life fulfillment was something that deeply fit me.

I remember participating in a coaching business workshop where I initially described my interests as spanning several areas that can profoundly affect life fulfillment — career direction, relationships, and how well people arrange their everyday lives around how their unique minds naturally function.


The facilitator encouraged me to focus on one core pain point.

After hearing my story, she suggested career direction.

And that brought me back to the mission I had written in my scholarship application years before.

Maybe getting lost wasn't actually a completely time-wasting detour from that mission.

Maybe it was part of how I became capable of pursuing it.

If I had always known what I wanted to do, if I had turned my childhood fascination into a career early on, I would never have learned what it feels like from the inside to be deeply uncertain about your direction, make choices under real-life pressure, experience the negative effects of misalignment, find your way, and get on track in an aligned direction.


I wouldn't know which parts of the journey are genuinely helpful — and which can become years of unnecessary detours.

And I believe that matters because many people don't get the chance to figure everything out early.


Many of us are trying to navigate this while working, paying bills, supporting families, recovering from difficult experiences, or simply trying to understand ourselves better.

That's the journey I want to help people navigate.

Not toward a picture-perfect life.

Not toward some permanent state of happiness.

But toward something much more practical:

identifying an aligned direction, getting on track to move toward it, and creating a life in which you can keep making meaningful progress.
