Summary

Executive Protection Agent with over 10 years of experience. I have worked closely with various law enforcement agencies and military personnel. I recently finished a high risk government contract working alongside TDEM, CBP Federal Agents, and the Texas National Guard on the US/Mexico Border. I have worked on many close protection details such as workplace violence interdiction, hostile terminations, Covert Protection and Surveillance details. Many of my assignments have been in protecting Dignitaries, Senators, Congressmen and their families, Ultra High Net Worth Individuals, CEO's, and Major Media Broadcast Outlets covering Presidential Elections and Protests.
