THE MISSION
Something powerful is coming…
Do you remember sitting at your school assembly half listening to “that drug guy” ramble on about saying no to drugs? Well, I’m taking that name head-on and launching something I’ve felt called to do for a long time.
Soon, I’ll be sharing my own challenging life experiences and decisions, transforming them into vital lessons for students. My goal is simple: to speak candidly and openly about addiction and the critical dangers of substance use, promoting healthier choices, fostering understanding, and shedding light on available assistance.
Excited for what’s ahead… let’s shape brighter futures together.
A LITTLE ABOUT ‘THAT DRUG GUY’
CANDID CONVERSATIONS TO CREATE CHANGE
Brian is living a fulfilled life of gratitude, but it wasn’t always this way. At an early age, Brian struggled with substance use that quickly turned to addiction. Through his candid stories about the darkest years of his life to how he reached recovery, he is turning his past into purpose.
TESTIMONIALS
WHY BRING BRIAN TO YOUR SCHOOL OR EVENT?
HIGH SCHOOL HEALTH TEACHER
“He was the most impactful speaker we’ve ever had. And for my kids that I teach, for them to sit quiet for 58 minutes, was pretty remarkable.”
What’s with the name?
“I do ironically refer to myself as ‘That Drug Guy,’ only because that was the nameless person that used to come into my high school and talk to us about drugs and alcohol.”
