Welcome, I'm Don

Don is passionate about helping people grow—personally, professionally, and spiritually. With over 25 years of experience in education, counseling, and organizational leadership, he brings both expertise and heart to his work as a speaker, coach, trainer, and consultant.

He has taught at the high school and university level, served in counseling roles from private practice to residential treatment, and spent 15 years in leadership with Young Life. His doctoral research in Counseling Psychology also shaped a national staff assessment program still used today.

Don is a frequent conference speaker on topics including personal growth, relationships, leadership, and spiritual formation. Together with his wife, Renee, he also leads marriage retreats.

When he’s not working, you’ll find him enjoying bold coffee, spicy food, fly fishing, disc golf, mesquite BBQ, or a good history documentary.
