First "Real" Job
Doug’s first “real” job was as a trainer in the audio-visual department of his college library. Over 39 years later, he is still passionately teaching people how to effectively communicate with those delightfully challenging tools that we call “technology.” Every year, Doug leads hundreds of conference sessions and professional development seminars for school-teachers all over Tennessee and Kentucky.

Doug believes that integrating technology into instruction is a powerful way to enrich teaching and learning. Kathy Pryor, Title I Technology Specialist, Sumner County Schools
When you need a trainer, you have many choices. None are better than Doug. Professional, knowledgeable and personable. You can't ask for more! Jimmy Anderson, Technology Director, Dyersburg City Schools
Doug is the most knowledgeable presenter concerning classroom equipment and its benefits we have experienced since I became Technology Director 5 years ago. The information he provides is far more beneficial than any other vendors or on-line trainings we have used. His easy-going and friendly personality makes the teachers comfortable and he is always available for Q & A long after the sessions end. Barbara A. Young, Director of Technology, Bledsoe County Schools
Doug is professional, friendly and truly and asset/resource for us. He answers our questions quickly and always with a smile. He is always after what we need to accomplish our goal and not just what he has to sell. We really appreciate that. Ardee Reyes Chua, Metro Nashville Public Schools
