Doug Hamlin was born in 1960 in upstate New York. Growing up he developed a clear vision of what success looked like. In his twenties that view was severely challenged by personal and family tragedy. He found in himself an optimism and determination to move forward and achieve goal after goal. Having enjoyed careers as a software engineer, transportation planner and software company CEO, Mr. Hamlin is now an occasional consultant, public speaker, woodworker and admitted vodka snob.
