Brian started jumping out of airplanes at age 19 in the Army. He pursued skydiving as a devoted hobby. He began competing in skydiving in a four person team. After four years of competing, winning two bronze and silver medals but not achieving the elusive gold medal, he took a break from skydiving.

In the meantime, he went through a divorce and hit a season of challenges in his personal life and career. Vocationally, he was a web developer early in his career. Brian's career achievements accelerated after reading Joe Pulizzi’s Epic Content Marketing. He pitched himself to his VP of Marketing to commit to content marketing under his leadership and the results he achieved proved him right. He got remarried. His blended family of six kids between him and his wife is a huge blessing. He began to teach skydiving, which brings him a significant level of fulfillment.
Brian turned to what brings him passion to find fulfillment above and beyond the blessings of his family life, which in his case is teaching others to skydive. Listen to Brian's BF to AF story to get your own inspiration in whatever midlife season you're in.
