The sun’s rays do not burn until brought to a focus.” It’s a rare skill that the top leaders in any area of expertise posses – focus.

He has as overseen an era of tremendous growth since coming to the organization 12 years ago. He’s taken the vision of Joni Eareckson Tada and helped make Joni and Friends the authoritative voice on Christian outreach to the worlds one billion people with disabilities and their families. Doug became keenly aware of the world of disability when his son Ryan was born with a severe handicapping condition. He’s brought award-winning skills in corporate leadership. Doug’s distinguished career in the automotive industry includes serving as senior American executive for American Suzuki Motor Corporation; he wrote the marketing plan that successfully launched Suzuki automobiles in this country. Under his leadership, the Suzuki Samurai was named one of the top 10 marketed products in the United States and became the subject of a Harvard case study.
