I didn’t build this company because I had all the answers.

I built it because I’ve lived the questions.

Grit & Grace Partners was born from the belief that resilience and compassion aren’t opposites—they’re companions.
After overcoming addiction, homelessness, and incarceration, I rebuilt my life from the ground up. And what I saw along the way was this: the people we overlook often carry the deepest strength.

This company exists to help leaders and organizations see what I’ve seen—
That the best teams aren’t found.
They’re forged.

what we stand for:

  • The past should be a refiner, not a definer.

  • Leadership is earned through resilience, not titles.

  • Compassion is a strength, not a softness.

  • Workplaces thrive when people bring their whole selves.

who we work with:

We partner with business leaders, HR teams, and mission-driven organizations ready to build cultures that value:

  • Emotional intelligence

  • Inclusive hiring

  • Second-chance potential

Whether you're seeking executive coaching, an EAP solution, or practical tools for leadership development—we’re here to help.
