I am retired Army veteran and a Purple Heart recipient. In my post-military journey, I have found immense fulfillment in giving back to the veteran community. I passionately dedicated my time to volunteering and supporting my fellow veterans and the shooting community. One of the key areas of focus has been assisting at shooting ranges for longe-range shooting competitions, weapons training and fundraising for veterans and youth organizations. Through these experiences, I made it my mission to share my knowledge and provide a hand to whomever I can support.
