FROM HERE TO THERE
I wrote it because I’ve been the guy asking, How did I get here? I’ve made choices I’m not proud of. I’ve carried regret. And I’ve learned—sometimes the hard way—that if you don’t take control of your story, life will write it for you.
This book is for the person who knows they need a shift but can’t quite name what’s off. Maybe you’re stuck in a season that doesn’t fit anymore. Maybe you’re tired of repeating the same patterns. Maybe you’re doing “fine” on the outside, but you feel like you’re drifting on the inside. From Here to There is built to help you slow down, get honest about where you are, and start moving with purpose.
“From Here to There isn’t a 'feel-good' book. It’s a real one.”
Inside, I share lessons shaped by military service, leadership, and life after the uniform—along with the mindset resets I had to make to keep going. You’ll learn how to look at your past without getting trapped in it, how to recognize the decisions that keep pulling you backward, and how to build a plan that makes your future feel real—not just hopeful.
This is not about perfection. It’s about progress. It’s about learning how to make better decisions, one step at a time, even when you’re carrying history.

A wonderful weaving of life lessons shared from the heart with powerful guidance for finding and giving back the best of one self to others and the path they pursue.

The book focuses on two key concepts: reverse engineering and owning your narrative/story. These are two things I have unconsciously been doing that helped me become successful at whatever I set my mind to. But what Lee did that made it so insightful was he labeled it and named it clearly for me. Now that it is explained clearly, I can use these tools consciously in my life. The book came at a great coincidental time for me. I just decided I want to be a household name (well actually I’d been planning since 2021) and since I got fired three months ago, this is the time in my life to execute the plan. Lee’s book makes me feel encouraged to share my dirty story of why I do what I do, (oops it’s not a pretty and polished reason) and I’m not apologizing for it and not caring about other people’s judgment.
