From student-athlete to business owner, a @doane_alumni Devin Johnson, ‘12 shares how his time at Doane laid the foundation for personal growth, professional confidence, and the courage to build his own chiropractic practice. Through injury, mentorship, and meaningful connections, his Doane experience became the launchpad for a life of purpose and impact. 🔸 What impact did Doane have on you—personally and professionally? Doane impacted me greatly while I was there, and the impact continued after I graduated. Doane helped me be more confident because of the education I received, but it also helped me meet a diverse group of people. Coach Ziola and Coach Bessler had the biggest impact on me during my time in school. They were the ones who reached out to me originally to go to Doane and granted me the Ed Pallet Impact Scholarship for track. I ended up having a bad string of injuries that kept me out of my sports, but those two specifically helped me become more resilient through what I thought at the time was the end of the world. That resilience helped me become the person I am today. Also, shoutout to Denny for being a top-notch equipment manager and always keeping us on our toes! 🔸 What are you doing now? In March 2024, I was able to move forward with that dream and move to Nebraska to open my own chiropractic office, DJ Chiropractic LLC, in south Lincoln. As a chiropractor, starting off right out of school is very difficult, whether you’re joining an established practice or opening your own clinic. Being a Doane graduate gave me the skills to not only pursue my doctorate, but it also gave me confidence to start from scratch and build my own business in a completely different state. 📍You can find Devin's office inside of Cooksley Family Chiropractic in Lincoln, stop in and say hi!
