About Jack


Origin Story
Jack was raised in Summerland, CA with roots tracing back to Douma, a village in the mountains of Lebanon. He earned his degree in Communication Studies from San Francisco State University. Jack began his professional journey at the age of twelve with his first job in a restaurant. Little did he know how versatile his career path would be in the course of 25+ years, working across more than ten industries in the private, public, and nonprofit sectors in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, and New York City. This exposure taught him valuable lessons concerning work and the importance of work-life balance.
​
Jack holds an Associate Coaching Certification (ACC) from the International Coaching Federation, a testament to his commitment to personal and professional growth. During his coach training, Jack discovered that overcoming obstacles is key to becoming a better version of oneself. This realization led him to explore his own psyche, uncovering previously overlooked aspects of his identity and transforming them into new opportunities. Through introspection, Jack has redefined his perspective on daily experiences and lifelong relationships, empowering him to approach life in a more meaningful way. These insights culminated in the creation of his Fundamental Areas of Life group programs.

Jack moved back to Summerland, where he continues to apply the coaching techniques he learned while living in New York City. Outside of work, he enjoys staying socially active, hiking, swimming, running, and meeting new people.
