Richard Waddell
Dave Ramsey Certified Counselor
Workplace Trainer


In 1991, Richard started his professional career with Lenscrafters, Inc. as a lab technician. While at Lenscrafters, he was a lab manager for nine years and was responsible for renovating both, the lab and the team dynamics within the stores. His love for helping people flourished in 1996, when he was able to travel overseas with the “Gift of Sight” program, the non-profit foundation responsible for distributing used eyeglasses in developing countries around the world. Richard helped to distribute over a hundred thousand pairs of eyeglasses while attending six international missions to the countries of Bangladesh, Chile, Peru, and the Philippines, as either a team member or leader. This experience helped shape his life in the future.

Richard has been in the optical industry for more than eighteen years now. He is currently serving as an optical lab technician and trainer at Diversified Ophthalmics, Inc., one of the top 25 privately held companies in Cincinnati, Ohio. During his time with Diversified Ophthalmics, Inc., he discovered his true calling as a trainer, a coach, and ultimately a Dave Ramsey Certified Counselor and Certified Workplace Trainer, for the Financial Peace University Workplace Edition, to both, individuals and teams.

Richard discovered his passion for helping others as a financial Counselor after discovering Dave Ramsey and the book “The Total Money Makeover”. Using the principles that he learned, Richard along with his wife Lea, eliminated their debt and started helping others to progress towards financial peace. “Financial Peace University” has become a stable part of Richards’ life. To date, he has led five classes at his workplace and eight at his church, helping hundreds of families on their road to financial freedom.

Richard has been married to his lovely wife, Lea, since the year 2000. They currently reside just east of Cincinnati, Ohio. They have three beautiful girls, Alyssa, Jessica, and Chelsea. He primarily spends his free time with his family and enjoys studying Kyusho Jitsu martial arts, as well as, Mixed Martial Arts. Richard and Lea are very active in Church, specifically in Pathway Ministries, where they serve on the Benevolence Committee.
