About Don

I’m Don. For years, my life was the picture of hopelessness—addiction, homelessness, prison, broken self-worth, and a mind at war with itself. I spent more than two decades behind bars for bank robbery and came close to giving up for good.

But then I had an awakeing, and I did a complete 180.

I got clean. I built a family and a home. I taught myself to code and helped two struggling startups grow into multi million-dollar companies. Today, I live with my wife and our boys on a homestead in Durango, raising goats, chickens, and organic food, while pushing my limits on the mountain bike trails. I’ve written books, spoken on stages, and founded Project 180 to help others discover that transformation is possible—no matter how far gone things may feel.

Because if I can do a 180, so can you.
