About Dream 2 Lead (D2L):

The genesis of Dream 2 Lead (D2L) finds its roots in the shared dream and passion for serving the community, particularly children, through mentorship. Kristoffer Doura, the founder and visionary behind D2L, harbored this dream as early as 2016. However, it wasn't until 2024 that the dream began to take tangible form, fueled by a combination of vision, determination, and momentum in youth advocacy.

Kristoffer Doura, renowned as an ex-professional NFL player for the Miami Dolphins and having played in international leagues, envisioned a platform that could provide meaningful mentorship opportunities and access to youth. His aspiration found fruition when he joined forces with Telena Paris, a dynamic leader with a proven track record in organizational and business development, particularly in the realm of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the nonprofit sector.

Telena Paris, a trained choreographer, vocalist, actor, and filmmaker, brings a wealth of artistic and organizational experience to D2L. Trained in Martha Graham and various dance techniques, she has traveled extensively and worked with major theatrical organizations such as Disney and Universal. Additionally, Telena's noteworthy modeling career for Nike Athletic Brands further underscores her multifaceted background and commitment to excellence. As the creator and developer of the Adventurology Summer Camp, Telena has poured her expertise and passion into making this camp a reality, fully supported by Kristoffer's extensive experience and vision.

Both Kristoffer and Telena work part-time as professors, further solidifying their dedication to education and their understanding of its value. Driven by their shared belief in God and a desire to honor their faith through positive change in youth, they embarked on a journey to establish D2L as a beacon of hope and empowerment in the community. Their unwavering commitment to making a difference in the lives of young individuals led them to establish D2L with a shared philosophy centered around sports and entertainment, S.T.E.A.M. education, mental health resources, and high-level mentorship.
