MY BACKGROUND
Following graduation from West Point and military service, I spent several years as a Trappist monk practicing meditation under Christian and Buddhist teachers.
After several years in the monastery, I worked in Japan as a consultant and started two companies. I later returned to the US, received a master’s degree from Boston College and pursued doctoral studies at Harvard.
Following grad school, I spent over 25 years as an executive in several US and International tech companies.
I started MonkCoach to help professionals live holistic lives while creating profitable value-centered enterprises.
