Bio 

Served over 20-years in the US Army beginning as a Private in 1975 and retiring as a Lieutenant Colonel in 1999. I am retired from The Coca-Cola Company in corporate finance after a 17-year career. Based on my experiences in corporate America, I have written the book, Boots to Loafers, Finding Your New True North which outlines the steps one needs to take to effectively Transition out of the military, how to Transform themselves, and finally how to Integrate back into the private sector. http://www.bootstoloafers.com
