DRAKE HUNTER
VICE PRESIDENT OF DEVELOPMENT
ASSOCIATE - LEVEL ONE
ASSOCIATE - LEVEL TWO, COACHING WITH INNERKINETICS
ASSOCIATE - LEVEL THREE - PARENTING

It’s been over 25 years since a rebellious, homeless surfer from Carlsbad California sat on a desolate beach, looked into the sky and asked the question, “Is there more to life than just merely surviving?”  Drake Hunter set out to answer the question and, with much experience and discipline, found the answer to be a resounding “Yes!”

Drake’s counseling and coaching career began early in his 20-plus-year military career. As a young Airman in the U.S. Air Force his commander saw something within Drake that Drake didn’t see: the ability to coach and supervise people.  Over the span of his career Drake achieved an enlistment senior leadership position (First Sergeant) and had the honor and privilege of personally supervising and coaching over 400 men and woman in uniform.  Also, during this era Drake served as a bi-vocational youth pastor reaching, speaking to, and connecting with thousands of young people around our nation and in Germany.        

Throughout the years Drake has steadily pieced together an impressive undergraduate educational package to include an equivalent BA in Leadership management with emphasis in information management. Currently he is pursuing a Master of Divinity (MDiv) from Bethel Seminary, and he has received a certificate of qualification from Ray W. Lincoln & Associates to coach in Temperament understanding and training.    

Prior to moving to the Denver area to become our Vice President of Development in September of 2011, Drake and his wife, Sherrie and their youngest son, Jeremiah, lived in Cheyenne, Wyoming where he lead a successful youth ministry at First Baptist Church of Cheyenne.  Drake’s family, including Joshua (his oldest son) enjoy laughing together and making life-long memories. Both Sherrie and Drake are highly involved in their children’s lives and are fulfilled by exercising their God-given abilities and talents.

While Vandi devotes most of her time to caring for her family, she is passionate about facilitating learning opportunities for people of all ages and stages.  She holds a B. S. in Business Administration from Colorado State University specializing in Human Resource Management. Professionally she has worked in the banking, real estate development, and hospitality industries until 1992 when she joined her sister in business – owning and operating a professional dinner theatre. In 2001, she and her sister sold the business. Since then, Vandi has served as a consultant to several small business owners, event planner and coordinator, and as a volunteer to various ministries and her children’s school.

In May of 2008, Vandi met Dr. Ray Lincoln and soon thereafter became a devoted student of his in the study of personology. In 2010, Vandi became one of Dr. Lincoln’s first associates, certified in utilizing the Temperament Keys and co-teacher of the Parenting Enrichment Series.  As she continues her study and mentoring with Dr. Lincoln, Vandi is making plans to open a coaching center in Fort Collins working with individuals as well as expanding the market for parenting programs.

Vandi welcomes your questions and interest in discovering how you are created on the inside and how to find the blueprint to your real power and happiness.  She can be reached in Colorado at 970.690.5708 or my email vandideines@aol.com 




CARRIE HOFFMAN
ASSOCIATE - LEVEL ONE

Carrie Hoffman is a professionally trained life coach who has worked with many couples who are raising kids, helping them keep their love alive during their busiest parenting years. Her journey into coaching began in 2006 with training by the Coaches Training Institute. She opened her business, Embrace Life Coaching, in January 2007 and quickly affirmed that her most fulfilling work was helping families through providing premarital counseling, couples coaching and parenting classes.

Carrie met her husband Tom at Colorado State University in 1991 and they married in 1995, shortly after her graduation with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. She worked for Inter Varsity Christian Fellowship, a college ministry, for two years before starting a family in 1997. She was a full-time stay-at-home mom for 9 years. Carrie and Tom live in Aurora, CO and are enjoying raising their two school-aged boys.


In 2007, Carrie met Dr. Lincoln at a parenting seminar and loved the approach to parenting that he presented with the emphasis on truly understanding who the child is made to be. She was certified by Dr. Lincoln in early 2011 to coach on understanding temperament.

Carrie is also an active public speaker, speaking mostly to mothers’ groups on marriage and parenting topics.

Volunteering is an important part of Carrie’s life.  Her activities include helping with various projects at the boys’ schools and teaching 3rd graders once a month at church.  In addition, she co-teaches a premarital/early marriage class at her church and has been actively involved in Stephen Ministry, a program that provides listening and support for people in crisis.  In her spare time, she enjoys hanging out with friends and family, scrapbooking, making homemade cards, reading and fitness.

You can reach her at 303-916-7845 or Info@EmbraceLifeCoach.com or visit www.EmbraceLifeCoach.com.
