WHY DID YOU JOIN HORIZON STRATEGIES?
I served with Al Batschelet at the U.S. Army Recruiting Command in 2015 and maintained professional contact over the last few years. I have always liked the values of the company and followed its growth. I was interested in working for Horizon Strategies because of the value Al put on taking care of people first and at the same time providing a service to the government. When offered the role of VP of Defense Services, I happily accepted. I know this is a great opportunity and look forward to growing with the company.
WHAT DID YOU DO BEFORE JOINING HORIZON STRATEGIES?
I served in the United States Army until retirement, culminating as the Special Assistant to the Chief of the Army Reserve for Accessions. I was privileged to serve along some incredible veterans during my time in the military. I have experience in aviation, logistics, education, the special operations community, and U.S. Army Recruiting (USAREC). I concurrently run a small construction business, Kok & Son's Inc. We renovate homes in the Elizabethtown, Radcliff, and Brandenburg, KY areas.
