About Me

With advisors like Dr. Albert Bandura, the 4th most-cited psychologist ever, and Dr. Martin Seligman, the father of "positive psychology"; clients like Boeing, Motorola, and the Government of Guatemala; and athletes like Michael Phelps (14-time Olympic Gold medalist) and Mark Messier (the only NHL player to Captain two different Stanley Cup teams), it's no wonder that The Pacific Institute is the world's leading provider of applied cognitive science education and consulting--active in Countries and 18 languages.

In 2009, I took on The Pacific Institute's youth agenda across Canada, working with companies, communities, and causes that want to better equip the nation's future leaders and citizens with the tools for success. I do this primarily through our two primary curriculums PX2: Path to Extreme Success; and PX2: Higher Learning (for post-secondary students). As of mid-2010, I'll be working with First Nations and Metis communities in Northern Saskatchewan to help unleash their potential.

In 2007, I was a keynote speaker at an International Youth Symposium hosted by the International Council on National Youth Policy in Goa, India. Speaking about youth-led community building, youth entrepreneurship, etc.

I was a founding member of a youth-network, and founding board member of a youth-led movement to save and revive a historical theatre in a small city in Canada; and other things of course..

My other interests include: reading, volunteering, music, arts & culture, and most importantly, my wife Leanne and our sons Noah and Avi Felix.
