After serving in the Marine Corps Reserve as a tank mechanic, I faced a significant personal failure — a DUI that led to an early discharge. It was a hard moment of reckoning. I quit drinking, reevaluated my path, and leaned back into the values that had shaped my life before the military: faith, service, and justice.

Though I left the Corps with unfinished ambitions, I stayed connected to fellow reservists in law enforcement, many of whom continued to serve their communities. I returned to ministry, working directly with youth on juvenile probation — kids who, like me, needed structure, accountability, and hope. This was more than charity work; it was a front-line education in how broken systems and broken hearts intersect.

Over time, this experience with at-risk youth and crime victims fueled my deeper commitment to legal advocacy. I completed paralegal training and began building tools and frameworks that could serve both professional legal work and faith-based rescue missions — especially for survivors of trafficking and abuse. That mission evolved into technology platforms, private investigation collaborations, and multi-disciplinary networks rooted in one goal: justice with compassion.

My work now bridges legal process automation, ethical investigations, and Christian ministry. The road here wasn’t perfect — but the calling is clear. Every feature I’ve developed, every form I’ve automated, and every partnership I build is designed to rescue the vulnerable, support the helpers, and redeem what’s been lost.
