In 2007, he formed Pinnacle Sports Performance, LLC to focus his career on sports related conditions.

The genesis for his illustrated children’s book was centered around the global pandemic in 2020. As adults and children were forced to be homebound many core principles were lost or altered. In his clinical practice he began to see more and more children, adolescents , young adults and adults with neck pain, back pain, headaches. As he spoke with them he discovered anxiety and depressive behaviors. He correlated this as a result of poor ergonomics, posture, breathing habits, lack of exercise, poor eating and drinking habits, anxiety, depression amongst other things and created a program to help corporations called the 7- Minute Huddle. It incorporated a weekly program that focused on 2 minutes of mindfulness and breathing, 4 minutes of postural/body exercises and 1 minute of a Dandy Deed. The 7-Minute Huddle was then incorporated into a local elementary school.

Kenzi Sits Up Tall is based on the principles of the 7-Minute Huddle and how Kenzi becomes a hero to her friends by incorporating these lessons with her friends and classmates.
