At Kaia, we help people who have great stories to tell about their technologies or solutions but who don’t know how to tell them in a way that can be easily used by their sales teams. We talk the tech, understand its nuances, and communicate it in ways that will enable your sales teams. 

>What's on the horizon for you?
I was really stuck in my business growth for the last year or so because I thought I had to come up with an execute the elusive PERFECT plan. After some soul searching and reading the book Atomic Habits, I made a GOOD plan and am looking forward to being dependable and executing it.

>How do you unwind at the end of a long day?
In the summer I love backpacking in the wilderness, for days at a time, with my wife Julie. Currently, I am training to run a half marathon, so running or hitting the gym after work is my stress relief, before heading home to spend time with family, which I also love, but isn't always stress free.

>What's a critical mistake you made that was a major learning moment?
I have wasted too many months being stuck in my business because I wouldn't reach out and ask someone for help. I finally got that I'm not in this alone and that there are other people out there that want to help and see me succeed.

>Tell us about your favorite EO moment.
When another member approaches me at a social event and tells me that an experience or book I shared with them changed their life. That makes it all worth it and is the reason I think we are all on this planet.
