About Damion wooten
I was raised in a home where sports and leadership were a way of life. My mother was a college basketball player and now coaches middle school basketball, while my father played professional football and became a highly respected high school coach. That foundation shaped me into the winningest player in Lausanne Collegiate School history, and I had the privilege of being mentored by NBA veteran Todd Day. I went on to play college basketball and football at Freed-Hardeman University and the University of Memphis, and later became a John Maxwell Certified Leadership Coach.
Over the past five years, I’ve trained athletes from middle school to the pros, helping many earn college scholarships and professional contracts. I’ve coached at Lausanne, Deer Valley, Benedictine University, and Inspiration Mountain, where I helped turn a winless team into a playoff contender. My faith-based approach centers on leadership, accountability, discipline, and faith—values that drive everything I teach. I founded Highly Intelligent Co after losing my job during the pandemic. Watching high school basketball on TV, God gave me the vision to start a program that develops both elite athletes and exceptional leaders—on the court, and in life.
