My Coaching Story

I have always been interested in coaching and helping people achieve their dreams. As a track athlete in college, it was a dream of mine to coach track one day. Since then, life has led me in other directions and I became very interested in money and personal finance, as well as people’s lives and what makes them tick. In 2023, I discovered that financial coaching was a thing people did to help other people with their money. I went through Dave Ramsey’s Financial Coach Master Training and became a Ramsey Preferred Coach and Fresh Start Now Financial Coaching was founded! 

Since then, I have met with dozens of people from all stages of their financial journey - from figuring out how to get out from under a mountain of debt to already being a millionaire and figuring out how to handle retirement. I am especially passionate about helping new and soon-to-be married couples figure out how to manage money together and helping young adults navigate out of student loan debt!


My financial journey

My wife (Jessie) and I got married in college and shortly after graduation, after we got a loan to get a second car, our total debt was about $88K. We spent a lot of time in survival mode as a young couple in a new place, gradually chipping away at our debt. After a couple years, we decided it was time to start a family. Adoption was on our hearts during our entire engagement and marriage, so a year after trying to start our family, we pursued adoption. We walked in faith through what I will call a “surprise” adoption, followed by completing our originally “intended” adoption. It was around this time we decided we would do everything in our power to never have debt again (oustide a mortgage). What followed was a mission to pay off the remainder of our adoption and student loans, managing two miracle pregnancies, and needing to spend thousands on counseling and therapy for our family to thrive. We were able to achieve all these victories.

My financial journey has seen a lot of great decisions, a lot of big mistakes, and a lot of blessings. I have THOROUGHLY ENJOYED coaching and helping others overcome their obstacles, dream big, and get results quicker and better than we were ever able to!
