About Me
After getting a PhD in Computer Science focusing on the development of educational simulations, I started my professional journey by spending 20 years in the technology industry both developing and managing the development of educational software. All throughout my career in EdTech, my focus was on creating software that provides opportunities for students to really learn things.
Additionally, I spent 12 years of my time in EdTech managing a team of up to 12 engineers and learning designers. My favorite part of the job was working with them to help them figure out who they wanted to be professionally and how to get there.
In parallel with all of that, I have spent 34 years in 12-step recovery, and have been guiding people through the recovery process for the vast majority of that time. This combination of personal and professional experience has given me insight into what it takes to be successful -- self-confidence, grit, a growth mindset, stress management, and personal responsibility. I call these the 5 Pillars of a Success Mindset.
I have a coaching certification from UC Davis and an ICF ACC credential, giving me the theoretical and practical background to knit all that together into a coaching experience.The techniques I use are derived from my experience in 12-step recovery, from my coach training, and from my experience as a manager in the technology industry.
If you're struggling to achieve your goals, whatever they are, it's likely that you could use some help with one or more of the characteristics above. I'm here to help!
Reviews
I hired Coach Brendon as a life coach and to learn skills to deal with social anxiety. He was exactly what I was looking for and I can honestly say my life is better from working with him. The thing about Brendon is that while he is a good listener, he's about taking the actions you need to actually make improvements in your life. I have been to several therapist over the years and Brendon has help even more. He helps you understand what it is you need to work on and then comes up with an action plan on how you can actually do it. He was extremely easy to talk to from the first appointment. I believe Brendon could help people with all sorts of issues not just social anxiety. There is no better investment then into yourself. With a mentor like Brendon you will be making those improvements that will impact all parts of your life and overall happiness. PS Brendon did not ask me to write this review, I ask HIM if I could leave one for him after how much he has helped me.
