Brian wasn’t accepted to West Point out of high school or after a year at the New Mexico Military Institute.

Brian’s intelligence and work ethic remained hidden behind his test taking abilities. After a year at NMMI and the United States Military Academy Preparatory School his talents began to shine through.

Brian graduated in the top third of his class and married a 2001 Classmate.

Brian would be tested again at Ranger school, the National Training Center, and while deployed with his spouse in Iraq and Afghanistan.

This is his story.
