The road wasn’t paved. But it was mine—and it taught me how to adapt, rise, and lead with purpose.
The Expert Generalist: An Unpaved Road to Leadership is a compelling exploration of how fortitude, adaptability, and resilience can transform a life shaped by adversity into one of purpose and leadership. From growing up in poverty in the American South to thriving in global boardrooms, I share lessons on overcoming obstacles, embracing feedback, and finding strength in creativity and connection. Through personal stories and actionable insights, this book inspires readers to craft their path, embrace versatility, and lead with authenticity and vision.

Through candid stories—from navigating Southern Baptist culture to selling peaches in a K-Mart parking lot—I unpack what it means to be an "expert generalist," someone who adapts, connects across disciplines, and innovates. Sharing actionable insights with each chapter, empowering readers to stand tall, make new plans, and advocate for themselves.
Embrace Your Journey
My message encourages individuals and organizations to foster mentorship, pursue innovation, and lead purposefully. The book is more than a story of overcoming adversity; it’s a call to embrace your unique journey, navigate your unpaved road, and design a life and career that reflects your true potential.
