My professional career started out as the world's worst SDR. I was terrible. Absolutely awful. I spent 6 months dialing 80 times a day until I realized I had two options, quit or figure out a better way. I was also the guy who didn't put his college GPA on his resume because it was 🤔 ... less than stellar. With no other prospects on the table I leaned into figuring out something new. It was 2011. "YouTube was for posting cat videos", but I decided I was way better with a camera than I was with a phone. I partnered with a subject matter expert to start a weekly YouTube series. Growth was slow at the beginning, but luckily I worked for pennies so nobody really noticed 🤷🏼‍♂️. After some experimentation, listening to audience feedback, learning how to create community through content, and stacking growth; we grew our following to 1.1 million followers across YouTube (700k), Facebook (250k), Instagram (100k) and eventually TikTok (40k).

Tapping into a Chinese bilingual dual-cultural mindset, I support my client's China business strategies. I lived and worked in Taiwan, Hongkong, and China for 21 years. For 40 years, I’ve actively studied Chinese languages, cultures, and writings by popular Chinese scholars—in Chinese. I began studying Buddhist texts, to learn mindfulness from Buddhist teachers. The languages, cultures and philosophies of China are fascinating. You may find me reading the Dao, The Art of War, or assisting frustrated clients in communications with Chinese partners. —Contact me if you experience difficulties working with your Chinese counterparts.— I became interested in language at a young age—learning French in a trial elementary school program for only six months. Later, in high school, I took French, Spanish, and German. And as a young adult, I had a dream to learn a second language with the same level of fluency as my native English language. Living in China and Taiwan for 21 years, I achieved that dream. Working and living in China from the 1980s allows me a sound foundation in understanding the Chinese and how they do things—often differently than in the US. I published “The Heart Of China: How Mindfulness Changed My Life.” And I’m preparing to publish at least two books in 2023. The first, a complete course in Pinyin, the Mandarin phonetic system, and another about my dog I raised in Harbin, China. I also write articles for Culturs Magazine, and have a Substack blog.
