Veteran-focused community leader and published author.
What I'm looking for
As a dedicated community leader and published author, I have spent over five years facilitating retreats for veterans, helping them rediscover their purpose and promote mental health. My journey began with Patrol Base Abbate, where I became a facilitator, organizing events that foster resilience and community among veterans. My commitment to this cause has allowed me to connect deeply with the veteran community, leading to significant outreach initiatives.
In addition to my community work, I have a strong background in security management, currently serving as an Assistant Account Manager at Allied Universal Security. My leadership has resulted in the lowest turnover rates and non-billable overtime in my portfolio. I pride myself on my ability to maintain strong relationships with clients while ensuring compliance and operational excellence.
As a published author, my debut poetry collection, 'Rock Eater,' reflects my experiences as a Marine infantryman and has garnered recognition within the veteran community. I leverage social media to share my work, building a following of over 13,000 on Instagram. My writing not only serves as a personal outlet but also as a means to connect with others through shared experiences and vulnerability.
