Originally a civilian enthusiast with a deep curiosity for firearms and law, Levi spent years training, protecting and serving the nation. At seventeen, he joined the U.S. Army as a Combat Engineer (12B), driven by a desire to serve and acquire elite tactical knowledge. He rose through the ranks quickly, discovering a natural talent for leadership and mentoring peers, particularly in the martial art of small arms application.

Recognizing gaps between standard military training and real-life gunfighting, he sought out top-tier civilian experts across the nation to refine his skills, training with many incredible, talented firearm instructors with a large variety of practical and real-world experience. Additionally, he earned a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice from the University of North Georgia with the desire to learn and understand the perspective of the United States' legal system and to fine-tune his knowledge to better teach law enforcement officers.  

Levi later applied his expertise to the private security sector, specializing in Close Protection for high-profile clients. His work spanned from upscale corporate environments in Buckhead to high-risk zones in East Atlanta. With the blend of a combat military role, academic grounding, real-world security experience, paired with the constant investment into his personal development culminated to one thing: his true calling was to save lives by passing on the best practical training he had received. By distilling years of diverse experience into actionable training, he helps students achieve the ultimate goal - making it home safe.

​

Throughout his career, he has taught hundreds of students, and intends on training thousands more. High-trust societies come from societies equipped with proper arms, the skill to implement those arms, and the knowledge of WHEN to use them. The more armed, responsible people there are; the safer the world we live in.
