MY STORY

From the pharmacy to the stage

I spent years studying to become a pharmacist.

 

I checked the boxes. Got the degrees. Completed residency. Built a career.

 

Then I took an improv comedy class.

 

And things got interesting.

 

In 2013, I discovered that improvisation wasn't just about making people laugh. It was about listening, connecting, adapting, and becoming more comfortable when things didn't go according to plan.

 

As someone who had spent years learning to find the right answer, I suddenly found myself in a world where there wasn't always one.

 

That experience changed how I approached my work, my relationships, and eventually my career.

 

Today, I'm a pharmacist, author, improv comedian, and speaker.

 

I've written books, performed comedy, taught healthcare professionals, and led workshops that bring a little more humanity and humor into professional development.

 

I love taking complicated ideas and making them accessible. I love helping people see something differently. And I especially love when an audience gets to laugh while learning something useful.

 

My work explores change, communication, leadership, health, and the wonderfully unpredictable experience of being human.

 

I'm also passionate about helping people improve their metabolic health. As the co-founder of Diabetes Remission Partners and co-host of the Diabetes Remission Roadmap podcast, I work to make health information practical, accessible, and empowering.

 

Outside of work, I'm a husband, dad of three, and youth sports coach who spends a lot of time trying to convince kids to listen.

 

The improv training comes in handy.

I have coached and performed for thousands of people. I have watched rooms full of serious professionals become laughing, energized, open-minded humans capable of creating worlds out of thin air.
