전기 및 작가의 여정

John Delony’s path to authorship began less in publishing than in student life, crisis response and higher education. At Lubbock Christian University, where he later said he changed majors several times, a turning point came when he saw Good Will Hunting and became drawn to the work of sitting with people in pain. He finished a bachelor’s degree in humanities and psychology at Lubbock Christian, then earned a master’s in higher education administration and two PhDs at Texas Tech University. Before Ramsey Solutions, he spent roughly two decades in higher education and crisis-oriented work, including student-support leadership at Texas Tech School of Law.
