My Biography

I am passionate about educating, equipping, and empowering people in the safe use of firearms. I specialize in working with women to overcome fears that they may have in regards to firearms, and how to safely handle firearms to protect and defend themselves. I am equally passionate about helping schools and churches develop an Emergency Operations Plan to protect their students, staff, and parishioners from a Mass Shooter event.

USCCA Certified Instructor in Concealed Carry & Home Defense, Defensive Shooting Fundamentals, Countering the Mass Shooter Threat, and Women’s Handgun & Self Defense Fundamentals.

    "I was a little nervous shooting a gun after over 20 years. Goldie made it easy, explained things clearly, and made the class fun! I am looking forward to taking her next class. I highly recommend this class even if you have shot a gun before. And i highly recommend Goldie as the instructor. Her knowledge puts you at ease and, if you take her advice, you will hit your target every time. "

    "Thank you Kathy! Looking forward to having you in the Enhanced Carry Permit class on the 25th and I’ll look into the Armed Guard training certification."
