About Me.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been someone who sees systems, not just the pieces, but the connections between them. My journey began with leadership roles across industries, from business operations to cultural development, where I helped teams align visions, optimize processes, and grow.
But the real story starts with a call to serve something greater.
As a veteran, I’ve seen firsthand the challenges that come after service: the isolation, the lack of accountability, the cracks in systems that should provide care but don’t. I knew we could do better. LastVet was born out of this realization, a campaign to connect every veteran, ask the simple question “How are you, really?”, and ensure no one slips through the cracks.
From veterans to broader communities, my mission is about creating lasting change. Whether it’s through Last 1 Nonprofit, the productions at Last 1 Studios, or the ongoing journey with LastVet, everything I do is focused on driving impact, sparking connection, and rebuilding systems to serve people the way they deserve.
It’s not about doing the work for others, it’s about showing up, building pathways, and empowering people to move forward.
I founded the Last 1 Ecosystem as a coordinated infrastructure to unify care, capital, and technology. It’s a nonprofit, a platform, and a movement, but more importantly, it’s a new way forward.
Through LastVet, I’m building a data-sovereign platform that uses AI and predictive analytics to match veterans with care, benefits, and opportunity. Through The Veterans Coalition, I’m convening a national alliance of organizations committed to best practices, standards, and collaboration. With Last 1 Nonprofit, I anchor movement-building and ecosystem stewardship. And through Last 1 Capital, I’m pioneering a regenerative investment model that channels philanthropic, venture, and catalytic capital into mission-aligned ventures.
My work is grounded in systemic thinking and built for a post-GDP future, one where human dignity, flourishing, and service are core economic outcomes.
I believe veterans are not a charity class, but a leadership class. And that by supporting them through intentional infrastructure, we can build the systems we wish existed for all.
