There is continuous engagement since 2006 with overlapping roles (founding, executive leadership, advisory boards, and production) and no evident employment gaps.

Industry ConsistencyMedium

Experience spans veteran services, nonprofit leadership, media/film, telehealth technology, and academia. While the core strengths center on leadership, transformation, and veteran programs, cross-industry moves introduce variance.

Education-Career MatchMedium

Education is listed as Western Washington University, but degree details are not provided. The career path highly leverages experiential leadership and programs, which may be sufficient but leaves some uncertainty about formal alignment.
