Brett Grimmer
Hi, I’m Brett. I am very excited to be co-leading 2026B with my wife BK! We live in St. Louis with our Aussiedoodle puppy, Bindi.
We love family time, the beach, traveling, and are originally from the west coast (California and Oregon). This past June and July found us in our RV, traveling up and down the Oregon and Washington coastline – Bindi loves the beach too! Our remarkable daughters Hannah, Mandy-Kay, and Molly joined us for fun-family beach time while in Oregon. Two of our daughters are NLC grads – Mandy-Kay 2016W, and Molly 2018M – and know from their experiences and tremendous growth how special this program truly is!
I have loved working with teens and young adults, coaching youth sports for more than 20 years (soccer, basketball, baseball), supervising/mentoring students at Principia College including the social event team, admissions ambassadors, and leadership program.
My days as a college student found me at Principia, Cal poly Pomona, and Ashford University, eventually earning my degree in Business Administration. In the 80’s I had a lot of fun and excitement working as a firefighter and search team member in Northern and Central California. I have also enjoyed careers in business management, as an entrepreneur, and as a business consultant. In 2014, I returned to Principia, grateful for the opportunity to give back and worked in both Student Life and Admissions. Recently I left Principia to return to business consulting and entrepreneurship. In my off time I am an avid reader, so-so golfer, and builder of farmhouse furniture.
BK and I are so grateful and feel blessed to have the opportunity to work with these wonderful young adults, and to shepherd this Class as we share experiences, grow spiritually, and discover unlimited potential with 2026B.
