Douglas Hoven is a REALTOR® by trade in the Southeastern part of VA and Northeastern part of NC. He is a dedicated Presbyterian, married for over twenty years to his amazing wife, and a grateful father of five children. Doug calls himself a student of life, learning most from the voices of those who have come before – authors long passed – and from the ups and downs of his own life journey. His writing flows out of faith, family, and the conviction that God uses both our valleys and our victories to shape us for His glory.
