Bryan Pena

Positive Psychology Coach | Founder | Author

Bryan's journey began in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. After immigrating to Miami in the early 1990s, he earned a double major with honors from Florida International University in International Relations and Business.

In 2005, he founded BP Media Partners - a marketing and brand management agency now celebrating 20 years serving global brands like Samsung, Mercedes-Benz, Four Seasons Hotels, and Sony Music.

Recently completing Harvard Executive Education with certificates in Marketing, Happiness in Leadership, and Team Success, Bryan transformed personal adversity into purpose - dedicating his life to helping others discover their inner happiness through the science of strengths.

We focus on what is right with you - your strengths, your virtues, your natural talents. Never on past traumas or weaknesses.
