Born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska, with the majority of Brian's life spent in Lincoln, he embarked on his career as an engineer. For over 33 years, Brian served as a rubber chemist, finding solace behind a computer, yet sensing a lack of genuine meaning. Seeking more purpose, he took on the role of a lay pastor for approximately 11 years. This endeavor not only allowed him to deepen and share his faith but, more importantly, to cultivate a profound appreciation for people.

​

​Brian's dual career as an engineer and pastor brought numerous growth opportunities and promotions. In 2015, he became a part of Maxwell Leadership. In his professional journey, he identified a gap in authentic leadership skills. Leadership, centered on people rather than mere processes, stood out as the missing link. While both management and leadership are crucial, it's leadership that not only breeds success but often elevates it to a level of significance. As an introvert at heart, Brian's passion for personal growth might just convince you that he's an extrovert at heart!

Outside of his professional pursuits, Brian cherishes moments with his wife, Kris, and their family - whether camping, sailing, enjoiying Nebraska Volleyball, movies, or simply relishing time in their favorite space - the back porch.
