$100K in student loans…
Raised by an incredible single mom in Southern Illinois, he moved 1000 miles away from home to Colorado and became financially independent at 18, paying his way through college.
Helped college students save over 30 million dollars through his work with Colorado-based start-up company, Tuition Specialists.
Recruited and trained the #1 sales team in the world for the oldest college leadership development program in the US, Southwestern Advantage, and paid off his loan debt just 1 year after graduating.

Now travels as a keynote speaker focused on helping companies develop vision and excellence through commitment.
“The grass is brown everywhere. It’s green where you choose to water it.”
Commitment
The things that hold us back from commitment are often the exact reasons we need it. It is the foundation of everything we do. With typical employees changing careers an average of 12 times, I'm here to explain this complex and scary concept in a simple and relatable manner so your employees and partners see the value of committing to a vision- to build their life where they stand.
“You were an absolute hit. there is no doubt you changed lives that day”
Mentality of a business leader…
attitude isn’t everything… it’s the only thing.
Philosophy
We are here to create a life of purpose and service. I believe in the power of authenticity, the power of conviction, and of course, the power of vision and commitment. Most people don't get what they want out of life because they have no idea what they want out of life! Start with a dream, identify who you need to become to attain it, commit to it, and follow through with consistent action. Focus first on building yourself, because it's not about the goal, it's about the person you must become in order to attain it.
You have a goal?... Now you need a team. Become a leader- then a builder of leaders. But how? No matter your status, a leader must set the example. It is our duty. Like kings of old, leading their troops from the front lines, we must know the way, show the way, and go the way! How else can we develop the next generation of world changers? As the late, great Spencer Hays said, "We don't build businesses. We build people, and people build businesses."
However, above all, we must stay rooted in the only thing that matters... this moment. Be present. Set goals but let go of expectations. Be highly invested, but emotionally unattached. Maintain perspective and do your best. Let’s find peace and happiness in doing our part to serve others and spread consciousness, for our time here on Earth is short. Build a life of impact; the only life truly worth living!
Love, Shane
