Doug was born and raised in Oregon and is a true native of God’s Country. He discovered his passion for serving God, and for over 40 years he has faithfully served in the ministry in Oregon, Iowa, Ohio, and California. This provided Doug the opportunity to experience a wide range of services which included child and adolescent development, outreach programs, community organizing, evangelism, summer camp administration, and adult and family counseling.

Doug’s unique approach through humor, music, and speaking allows him to connect with others that suffer from drug and alcohol addiction. His ability to use daily life situations from his own addiction and secrets and relate them in a humorous format, allows him not only to understand the heart and mind of the addict but also to communicate to them that they are not alone.

Doug serves as the Executive Director at the ROC Recovery Center. Their goal is to provide a Christ-Centered agency that provides services for “all forms” of addiction and/or compulsive behaviors.
