Devan Terry

Devan grew up in south Los Angeles, California and like his business partner, Marc, he saw many of his peers succumb to gang involvement, violence, and drugs. He too fell victim to the lifestyle but with the consistent support from his mother he was able to break the relationship he had with the streets. Along with his mother's strong presence, Devan was involved in sports, after school programs, and was often encouraged to participate in summer programs. Without truly noticing, involvement in these activities allowed Devan to interact with positive role models that he would later emulate.

Devan attended and graduated from California State University, Dominguez Hills with a bachelor of arts in sociology and minor in humanities in 2006. He has also been blessed to be a juvenile probation officer for the last 10 years. Devan has a strong love and passion for helping others and he chooses to use 4wrdProgress as a way to continue his service to those in need.
