The Imperial Theatre in Augusta, Georgia opened in 1918 as a vaudeville showcase. Among the earliest recorded appearances was the visit of Charlie Chaplin, who appeared at the theatre on April 16, 1918, selling Liberty war bonds. As the downtown area declined in the 1980’s, so did the theatre which closed in 1981. In 1985, it was recognized for its architectural significance and reopened as a performing arts venue with the help of local performing arts groups such as The Colton Ballet and the Augusta Players.” Today, the Imperial Theatre is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and the only operating historic theatre in Augusta.

I believe people and institutions thrive when strategy, values, and lived reality align. My work is grounded in long-term thinking, discretion, and sustainable decision-making—especially during times of change. My specialization is financial stabilization, season planning, leadership dynamics, and career clarity.
For nearly 30 years, I’ve worked in entertainment as an artist, entrepreneur, and executive. As an artist, leader, and father, my work is shaped by lived experience, creativity, and resilience—building collaborative pathways that create shared value while striving to live with abundance, humility, and gratitude.
My guiding principle is simple: lead through love. This philosophy shapes how I lead companies, support artists, and coach individuals and organizations with an artistic spirit. I help turn vision into action through thoughtful strategy, mindful awareness, and practical tools for growth and fulfillment. The results speak for themselves.
Nothing happens by accident. When we learn to partner with what we’re given, meaningful work—and meaningful lives—take shape.
I believe a problem is not simply something to solve, but a message to understand—often pointing directly to the opportunity for sustainable solutions.
Appointments arranged individually based on availability. Our work together can be done in person or by zoom.
