About RCVRY HOUSE

Omaha is more than the city where I live. It is where much of my life story has unfolded.

I have called Omaha home since 1992. It is where I spent nearly 20 years struggling with substance use and behavioral addictions—and where, by the grace of God, I have now lived more than 11 years in sobriety. I know what it feels like to be trapped in addiction, to disappoint the people you love, and to wonder whether lasting change is truly possible. I also know the freedom, purpose, and restoration that can come when someone receives the right support and begins building a different way of life.

RCVRY HOUSE grew from my love for this community and my conviction that men in early recovery need more than a place to sleep. They need a safe and stable home, meaningful structure, honest accountability, healthy relationships, and people who genuinely believe in them. The transition from treatment into everyday life can be one of the most vulnerable stages of recovery. RCVRY HOUSE was created to help bridge that gap and teach men how to live sober in the real world.

For nearly a decade, I have worked as a professional sober coach and sober companion through Sober Coaching, supporting individuals and families in Omaha and across the country. I have worked with men of different ages, backgrounds, and life experiences—standing beside them during difficult days, helping them navigate life after treatment, challenging them when they needed accountability, and encouraging them when they struggled to believe in themselves.

That experience has taught me that recovery is deeply personal. Lasting sobriety is built one honest decision, one difficult conversation, one healthy habit, and one day at a time. My role is not to walk the path for someone, but to walk beside him while offering guidance, accountability, perspective, and hope.

Working with men in early recovery is more than my profession; it is one of the greatest privileges of my life. I love helping men recognize their God-given value and watching them rebuild their health, confidence, relationships, and sense of purpose. A man's past does not have to determine his future. Recovery can become more than abstinence—it can become a life of responsibility, service, connection, growth, and genuine joy.

My Christian faith is the foundation of how I lead and serve. Proverbs 27:17 tells us, "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." That principle is at the heart of RCVRY HOUSE. I believe men grow stronger when they live alongside others who encourage them, challenge them, hold them accountable, and remind them they are not alone.

RCVRY HOUSE brings together my lived experience, professional recovery work, Christian faith, and passion for mentoring men. My hope is that everyone who walks through our doors finds more than housing. I want him to find stability, brotherhood, accountability, hope, and a genuine opportunity to build a healthy and meaningful life in long-term sobriety.

No matter how far addiction has taken someone, I believe restoration is possible—and no man should have to pursue it alone.
