EP Training Day 2.0

  • Advance Your Skills

  • Expand Your Network

  • Elevate Your Career

Why EPTD 2.0?

  • Because you want to show up to your next detail with the skills, mindset, and presence of a top-tier agent.

  • Because your résumé alone won’t get you hired—relationships and results will.

  • Because private sector protection requires a different approach than military or law enforcement—and few schools teach that difference.

  • Because success isn’t luck—it’s preparation, access, and alignment with the right mentors.

What You’ll Learn

This is not theory. EPTD 2.0 is a digital masterclass rooted in private-sector reality—where resources aren’t guaranteed, and performance is everything. Inside this course, you’ll gain:

  • Advanced EP Tactics & Real-World Scenarios

  • Hard-to-find private sector insights

  • Skills that apply to any detail—celebrity, corporate, high-net-worth, or international

  • Situational leadership and adaptability training

  • ​The mindset of elite protectors who win long-term

Founder | The League of EP Specialists

During my time in the military, I served in the United States Marine Corps infantry with two deployments to Iraq as a Squad Leader for four years. Right afterward, I became an Executive Protection Agent.


Today, I proudly serve as the Chief Executive Officer at Bravo Research Group, a private security company out of Southern California. I’m the founder of Protector Nation, a training company for first responders, private security professionals and civilians designed to help good people become more dangerous.
