My approach to training is simple: skills must work under stress, in real environments, with real consequences.

I bring a background rooted in military service, federal law enforcement, and emergency medicine, with years spent operating in environments where mistakes are unforgiving and preparation matters. I’ve served alongside infantry Marines, worked in high-risk law enforcement roles, and provided medical care in austere and high-pressure conditions. Those experiences shape every course I teach.

Firearms training is more than marksmanship. It’s decision-making, accountability, movement, communication, and the ability to perform when fatigue, stress, and uncertainty are present. Tactics are not theory—they are problem-solving tools that must be adaptable, legally sound, and context-driven. Emergency medicine is not about perfect textbook care, but about doing the right thing with what you have, where you are, until help arrives.

My instruction emphasizes:

• Practical weapons handling and shooting fundamentals that hold up under pressure
• Tactics grounded in reality, not trends or internet mythology
• Emergency medical skills focused on preventable death, self-aid, and team-based response
• Clear standards, measurable progress, and honest feedback

Whether I’m working one-on-one or in small groups, my goal is the same: build competence, confidence, and judgment—not ego. Training should leave you safer, more capable, and better prepared to protect yourself and others.
