I know what it feels like to carry the weight of expectations. As a Black and Mexican dad who’s moved through startups and corporate life, I’ve been through layoffs, big transitions, and those quiet identity questions that can keep you up at night.

Therapy gave me space to pause, reflect, and reconnect. That’s the space I create at The Guiding Block—bold, compassionate, and real. I’ll challenge the beliefs that hold you back and meet you with humor, authenticity, and empathy. We make room for the messy parts while building tools for resilience, healing, and growth.
