My Story
In the beginning.....
2006
My career in health and wellness started way back in 2006 when I worked as a Retail Pharmacist. I did this for 6 years before the stress of retail pharmacy got the best of me.
2012
During this time, the stress and burnout from my job weighed down on me. The future looked and felt bleak. I felt hopeless. The only way I could cope was through the use of drugs and alcohol. My life took a turn and I was diagnosed with substance use disorder (SUD). It was this year that I left the field of pharmacy and decided to focus on myself.
2013
After completing rehab, I became a stay-at-home father whilst my wife completed her residency. During this time my focus was to take care of myself and my family. I had embraced the life of recovery.
2014
Fortunately for me, I had an incredible support network to help in my long-term recovery from SUD. I was able to put my life back on track and recover my physical and mental health. I continue to better myself and stay in recovery through mindfulness, nutrition, exercise, and counseling.
2016
I decided to permanently step away from the field of pharmacy and begin my journey to becoming a wellness coach. I started working towards my MPH - Master of Public Health degree. Here I focused on leadership and organization. I built a powerhouse of knowledge and skills that I can use to help you transform your life.
2019
After receiving my Wellness Coaching Certification through The Mayo Clinic, I started up Smiley Wellness Coaching. And here I am, ready to help you create life-changing moments through effective wellness coaching.
