Sean joined the Air Force in 1992 and served in Aircrew Special Operations.  During his tenure, he worked closely with the Joint Special Operations Command where he routinely supported the U.S. President, Joint Chiefs of Staff and special operations units.

Following his separation from military service, Sean worked in executive protection for a renowned nationally based private security firm, where he  provided threat assessment and executive protective services for some of the most prominent public figures in the United States.

As a martial arts instructor, he leveraged his expertise by partnering with the firm to serve as one of their certified Defensive Tactics Instructors for the Midwest and Southern U.S. Regions.

Shortly after his executive protection path, Sean co-founded his own Texas based executive protection consulting firm which provided services to businesses, churches, elected officials, and private citizens.

In 2022, he applied his combined 21 years of experience in Aircrew Special Operations, executive protection, and tactics, to create Tactical Arts as a way to empower others through personal safety training.
