Our Founders

The Ringer Center of Excellence, Inc., founded in 2003 by Boris and Nattlie J. Ringer, was born from their shared vision to help individuals build sustainable lifestyles.

Boris, raised by a devoted single mother in Fayetteville, GA, and Nattlie, a proud Atlanta native whose parents dedicated their lives to education and ministry, combined their experiences and passions to create a nonprofit rooted in empowerment and self-sufficiency.

At the Ringer Center, we are committed to transforming mindsets—guiding individuals, families, and communities from struggle to survival, dependency to self-reliance, and hopelessness to empowerment.

Boris and Nattlie are the proud parents of two sons, Stefan and Desmond, and delighted grandparents to their granddaughter, baby Rose.
