Are You Ready to Stop Leaving Your Safety to Chance?
These days we are all hyper aware of the diverse criminal threats we and our loved ones face both in public and in our homes. Very few of us possess the rare combination of natural size, strength, skill and grit to handle a violent, hand-to-hand confrontation with a hardened criminal. Fortunately, the tools exist to level the playing field. Hazard Defense will provide you with those tools, plus the information and training allowing you to live your daily life on that level playing field.
Over 20 Years of Experience Identifying and Reducing Threats
Finn retired from the Marine Corps as a Master Sergeant and Master Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Technician, amassing over 20 years of real-world firearm experience and training. He’s an NRA-certified instructor in Basic Pistol, Personal Protection Inside and Outside the Home, and a certified Range Safety Officer. Finn also earned a bachelor’s degree in Emergency and Disaster Management from American Military University.
A graduate of both a P.O.S.T. certified Civilian Police Academy and USMC Military Police School, he possesses extensive knowledge of firearm laws and use-of-force guidelines applicable to all self-defense scenarios. Finn’s wealth of combat experience in urban environments provides him with unique insights into techniques that can keep you and your family safe in even the most complex and dynamic situations.
As a Bomb Technician, Finn was called upon to render safe hundreds of roadside bombs (IEDs). He will teach you to leverage that same calm and focus under pressure, enabling you to emerge safely from any self-defense scenario. He understands that low-pressure training, utilizing positive reinforcement, is the most effective way to teach the critical tactics and techniques upon which effective self-defense is based.
