My Biography
If you are looking for someone that is "tacti-cool," look elsewhere for an instructor as that is NOT me. I was never part of the “Cool-Kids Club,” and I am thankful for it. Owning a Firearm and Self Defense Company was NOT my intended career path, but a stalking situation changed everything.
I initially hated guns and my education about guns back then came from the news. The news would report, “guns are bad, people that own guns are bad” but then my life was threatened. I quickly educated myself on the various use of force options and understanding the law behind it.
I am a true Delawarian…grew up in Newark and moved to Townsend, DE many years ago. I went from a career in finance to a career in personal safety and I LOVE what I do for a living.
Although I have been in the industry since 2020, Defensive Training Solutions (DTS) was established in 2024. Not only have I been selling my soul for the business, but I am loving it at the same time.
At DTS we offer a non-intimidating environment and whether you are inexperienced or experienced, we offer the perfect learning environment. I am all for keeping our loved ones safe and our classes discuss protection options ranging from non-lethal to the lethal use of force and the laws behind such force.
We offer Concealed Carry Classes for DE, MD, NJ, FL & UT, DE Permit to Purchase, Introductory to Advanced Firearm Training Classes, Self Defense Classes, Emergency First Aid Classes, Shotgun Classes, One-on-One and Private Group Classes and customizable workshops for HOA’s, 55+ communities, realtors and various organizations.
