I'm channeling my passion for social impact and real food into a new venture, Wild Horizon Bar: an animal-based food bar sourced from regenerative agriculture, offering consumers a healthy, high-quality, real-food snacking option.My decorated 22-year military career having been awarded the Silver Star, Bronze Star, and Purple Heart as a Green Beret, including service in elite units like the 1st Ranger Battalion, 1st Special Forces Group, and U.S. Army Special Operations Command have instilled a focus on operational efficiency, strategic vision, and leadership. I've demonstrated these skills in various sectors, from leading COVID-19 response efforts to overseeing clinical operations for Alternate Care Facilities. My commitment to service extends beyond the military, as evidenced by my role on the advisory board for the Military Assistance Foundation, supporting veterans and their families and volunteer work with the Travis Manion Foundation, focusing on supporting communities and mentoring our future humanity.I'm also a successful entrepreneur, having founded and franchised the first whole-body cryotherapy studio in the U.S. My experience spans diverse industries, including consulting for Oil and Gas companies, where I helped drive operational efficiencies and strategic development.Currently I'm pursuing an MBA at Duke University, I'm committed to continuous learning and applying my skills to make a positive difference in the world.
