Doni was born in 1954, in Albany, Georgia. At age six, Doni and two younger brothers became products of a broken home when their parents determined that divorce was the only choice they had left. The boys were nurtured and raised by a single, working Mother who was the "most loving and caring person alive and the strongest woman who ever breathed". Although their family lived in what would have been considered poverty, the Helms boys never felt that they missed out on anything.
At age 10, Doni became a member of the Boy Scouts of America and rapidly progressed up through the ranks, earning 40+ merit badges and numerous awards. In 1967 Doni earned the newly introduced Computers merit badge and was hooked. Since the early 70s, he has worked professionally in the technology industry as a computer operator, programmer, systems analyst, trainer, and consultant to fortune 500 firms. Doni founded several technology companies, and has authored dozens of articles, white papers and training materials. Doni's newest book, titled "Tales From 3:16 Depot Street" is a collection of short stories about growing up the the Deep South. Tales From 3:16 Depot Street is now on sale at; AuthorHouse.com, Amazon.com, BarnesAndNoble.com, and available for order from thousands of media outlets across the country.
