Profile

After deeply immersing myself in mindfulness practice as a Buddhist monk in Thailand, I noticed a shift in the way I related to myself and others that I wanted to bring to the communities around me. Since then, I have spent the last 10 years focused on building out mindfulness practices across organizations, into the community, and across the globe.

I have worked alongside mindfulness pioneers such as Jack Kornfield, Tara Brach, Joseph Goldstein and Sharon Salzberg, and I have taught mindfulness and meditation for corporations including Tesla, Kaiser Permanente, Facebook, Ernst & Young, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. In 2014, I founded Mindfulness Exercises where over 20 million people have benefited from the free and premium resources on our site, including downloadable meditations, guided meditation scripts, mindfulness worksheets, courses, content and live online retreats.

Currently, I serve as a Lead Teacher for our Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification which is a unique, self-paced program balancing pre-recorded sessions with live mentorship and community engagement. Additionally, I serve as an Instructor for Google’s in-house mindfulness program.

Mindfulness is being aware of our moment-to-moment experience without judgment. Simple, but not easy. As a father and a husband, I understand how hard it can be to remain fully present in the seemingly ordinary moments of daily life. I am here to help.
