About Us
Dedicated Instructors
I started my firearms trainer career in the CT Army National Guard, A co. 1/102 Infantry, where as a Sergeant I was selected to attend the U.S. Army Small Arms Instructor Range Operations Course. After that, I assisted my battalion with qualifications training, remedial training, and range operations. I then served our communities as a police officer for 21 years, for 15 of those years I was an active police firearms trainer and for 4 of those years I was a member of a Regional Emergency Response Team (SWAT). In 2011 I started teaching civilians and shortly after decided to continue down that path. I attended the NRA Instructor training, getting certified to teach the Basics of Pistol Shooting Class. In 2019 I received my instructor certification from the USCCA in Concealed Carry and Home Defense Fundamentals. I continue to expand my training and instructor knowledge. In 2020 I became a certified NRA Range Safety Officer and a USCCA Countering the Mass Shooter Threat Instructor.
I run small group classes and private lessons to fit your needs. If you just want to shoot better that’s not a problem, I can definitely do that. But, my specialty is in defensive firearms training. I have been a student of firearms combatives for 30 years. My instructor certifications were geared towards combatives with firearms. I have taken many classes in use of force and combative mindset to help me better understand how the human body reacts under the stress of a high stress encounter such a deadly force. I bring that mindset to all my combatives classes.
I held certifications in:
Handgun, Shotgun, Patrol Rifle or AR15 sporting rifles, Military Small Arms, Electronic Control Weapons, Pepper Spray, Chemical Munitions, Diversionary Devices, Impact Projectile Weapon, Glock Armorer, Colt M16 Armorer, Remington Shotgun Armorer, Low Light, shoot house, and Active Shooter Response.
