Todd Coleman is a native Texan. Born and raised in North Texas, spending his youth split between his father’s family ranch, where his brother still resides; and his mother’s family small town hardware store. Although his Mother, siblings, extended family members and in-laws remain in North Texas only a few miles from each other, he and his wife, Laura, have lived in numerous cities throughout Texas since the first of several moves in 1992. Todd graduated with a BBA from Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls, Texas in 1983. He spent 16 years working for large corporations throughout Texas, with a short stop in Lake Charles, Louisiana (“I got back as quick as I could”). He met his wife in 1984 when both had returned home for the holidays to be with their families. They were married in 1991, and soon made the first move to the South, to Corpus Christi, where Laura would graduate with a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing.
