As the father of two (soon to be three) girls and a military spouse, Rodney is no stranger to the struggles a military family can face.

Dubbed the “King of Networking” by Lindsey, Rodney is a pro at getting connected into a new community after a PCS. Less than 2 years after PCSing to Colorado Springs, Colorado, Rodney’s cyber security company became the #1 cyber security firm.

• • [03:15] Rodney’s military life journey
  • [04:00] How the military has impacted Rodney’s career
