ABOUT DEVIN


CAN WE GET VULNERABLE FOR A SECOND? WHEN I WAS A KID MY BIRTH PARENTS WERE DRUG ADDICTS, ALCOHOLICS, THEY ABUSED, ABANDONED, AND MALNOURISHED ME. I WAS IN THE FOSTER CARE SYSTEM FOR A LITTLE WHILE, THEN GRATEFULLY ADOPTED AND RAISED BY A SINGLE MOM THE REST OF MY LIFE. 

I PLAYED SPORTS GROWING UP AND FELL IN LOVE WITH BASEBALL. I PLAYED ALL THE WAY INTO COLLEGE UNTIL I HAD A CAREER ENDING INJURY. AFTER GIVING 18 YEARS OF MY LIFE TO A SPORT THAT I HAD DREAMS OF GOING PRO IN, I LOST MY IDENTITY. I STARTED DRINKING AND DOING DRUGS TO JUST TRY AND EASE THE PAIN. ONE NIGHT I MIXED ALCOHOL WITH A DRUG AND HAD A SEIZURE FROM IT. I WOKE UP IN AN AMBULANCE KNOWING I NEEDED TO CHANGE. I DIDN'T WANT TO BECOME MY BIRTH PARENTS SO I KNEW SOMETHING HAD TO CHANGE. ONE OF MY FRIENDS BROUGHT ME TO CHURCH AND IT CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER. THE HEALING, ENDLESS LOVE, GRACE AND COMPASSION I FELT FROM GOD WAS SOMETHING I WILL NEVER FORGET. HE WENT AND FOUND THE LOST SHEEP(ME) AND BROUGHT ME BACK TO LIFE. HE RESCUED ME WHEN I THOUGHT NO ONE CARED. WITH THIS BRAND WE HOPE TO BE A LIGHT IN YOUR DAY TO REMIND YOU HOW POWERFUL YOUR FUTURE  CAN BE.

MY GOAL WITH THIS BRAND IS TO ENCOURAGE, LOVE AND HELP THOSE WHO ARE SUFFERING INTERNALLY. WE WANT TO BE A LIGHT TO THIS WORLD AND CREATE APPAREL THAT YOU KNOW HELPS SUPPORT THOSE IN THEIR DARKEST TIMES. WE PLAN TO GIVE BACK TO CERTAIN INDIVIDUALS INSTEAD OF GIVING TO A CHARITY OR FOUNDATION SO WE CAN SEE THE SEEDS BE PLANTED IN THOSE LIFES THAT WE INSPIRE TO HELP.
