Born in Battle Creek, MI Devan grew up in rough conditions. Most of Devan’s childhood was riddled with violence, government assistance, drug abuse, alcoholism, moving from state to state, and capped off by abandonment from his mom as teen. He spent his time on sports fields and creating businesses to escape his home life and gives credit to baseball and Morgan (now wife) for saving his life. He met Morgan at 12 years old and they would eventually get married, open a business, and start at family 12 years later. They now share a wonderful life together living in Cornelius, NC with their daughter Cameron and two sons, Max and Ryan. Devan played collegiate baseball at Central Michigan University and left school to continue his baseball career with the San Francisco Giants which ended a few years later. His baseball journey led to his love for health and fitness because he experienced the joy from helping his host families achieve more happiness through health. This sparked the idea of Burn Boot Camp and since Devan has dedicated his life’s work to helping families all over the world. Today, he is the leader of thousands of amazing people employed by Burn Boot Camp who share the vision of helping women achieve more than they thought possible for themselves and their families. Devan defines success as “making every life he touches healthier and happier” and if you asked him, “how do you do that?” He will reply, “you teach them to love themselves today, so they’re inspired by the possibilities of tomorrow.”
