A bit about our guest:
Bryan is a fractional CEO, consultant, and entrepreneur who works with organizations navigating complexity, constraint, and consequential decision-making. His career spans military service, private-sector leadership, nonprofit executive work, and real estate and community development, often in environments where progress depends on clarity, discipline, and the ability to adapt when plans change.
Bryan began his professional life in U.S. Army Special Operations, where he developed a foundation in leadership, accountability, and operational execution. During his service, he was diagnosed with stage-four cancer, a turning point that ended his pursuit of a continued military career and forced a fundamental reassessment of direction and priorities. After undergoing treatment and recovery, he transitioned into the private sector, carrying forward the mindset shaped by military service while applying it to business and organizational leadership.

Following his recovery, Bryan founded and led a physical security firm, building and operating a company in a regulated, risk-sensitive industry. He later expanded his work across multiple ventures as a founder, operator, and advisor, with experience in service-based businesses, complex urban redevelopment projects, and organizations that require close coordination with municipal agencies, architects, engineers, and financial stakeholders. His work consistently bridges strategy and execution, focusing on practical planning, financial discipline, and outcomes that hold up under scrutiny.

In parallel, Bryan serves as President of Honor Bound Veterans, a nonprofit dedicated to reducing veteran isolation and suicide through peer-driven community engagement. Across his commercial and nonprofit efforts, he brings a steady emphasis on resilience, clear decision-making, and building durable systems that function in real conditions rather than ideal ones.
