The Veteran community holds a special place in heart.
As a veteran myself, I went through some tough times in my transition out of the Marine Corps. I was one of those who thought I'd rely on my leadership and military experience and slide right into a good-paying job I could turn into a career. Boy was I wrong!
I tried college, construction, law enforcement, and a few more. I went through quite a few jobs before I finally found out how much I loved being behind the camera. Some I wasn’t happy doing for the rest of my life and others I couldn’t continue because of injuries I sustained during the military. Even though they were mostly things out of my control every wrong turn felt like a stab at the heart.
A lot of mistakes were made but, at the same time, new lessons were learned. Over time as I've gotten back on my feet, I've come to see the countless people and services out there willing and able to help within the community. With this initiative, I am hoping to be one of those people helping fellow veterans have a successful transition and a better life.
Find someone to hold you accountable and on the right track. There's always someone who can help, you just have to be willing to ask. I never did, and my path was a lot harder than it had to be because of it.
