Veteran-Led, Mission-Focused: How Military Experience Shaped My Approach to Private Investigation

When people ask me what sets Kinetic Investigations apart, the answer is simple: I, a veteran private investigator, built this business on the same principles that guided me through two decades in the Army. Integrity, adaptability, and results.

Before founding Kinetic Investigations, I served 20 years in the U.S. Army. My early years were in field artillery, but a life-altering injury shifted my career trajectory. After re-classing and honing my craft in intelligence collection and analysis, I eventually applied for and was accepted into a Special Mission Unit. That’s where I spent nearly a decade refining my skillset and working in highly focused, complex environments that demanded precision and discretion at every level.

What the Military Taught Me That I Use Every Day

Surveillance, situational awareness, and human behavior analysis weren’t just checkboxes on a training list. They were part of the job. Today, those same skills are the backbone of how I approach private investigations.

In the military, you learn quickly how to read a room, how to prepare for contingencies, and how to adapt without losing sight of the mission. You get used to paying attention to things most people overlook. Tone shifts, inconsistencies, patterns that don’t fit. That attention to detail has translated directly into how I work every case.

When I’m conducting surveillance or reviewing information, I’m breaking it down the same way I would an intelligence report: objectively and strategically. And because I’ve worked with and alongside some of the best the intelligence community has to offer, I know what solid information looks like and, more importantly, how to get it.

What Clients Can Expect

My job now is to help people make informed decisions. Whether it’s a concerned parent needing answers, a spouse trying to protect their peace of mind, or an attorney preparing for court, I approach each case with the same mindset: identify the objective, plan thoroughly, execute quietly, and deliver clearly.

Clients don’t get excuses. They get honest answers. I won’t make guarantees I can’t stand behind, and I won’t fluff up a case to make it sound more dramatic than it is. What I do promise is professionalism, discretion, and a straight answer, even if it’s not the one you want to hear.

Why I Started Kinetic Investigations

I didn’t transition out of the military just to do a job. I did it to build something with purpose. Kinetic Investigations reflects everything I’ve learned: discipline, resourcefulness, and the value of having the right people in your corner when it counts.

I understand how hard it is to trust someone with sensitive information. That’s why I’m not here to sell you something. I’m here to earn your trust. Whether you’re an individual navigating a personal issue, a law firm needing trial support, or a business trying to protect its interests, I’m ready to help.

When you’re ready to move forward with a private investigator who brings focus, clarity, and discretion to every case, I’m here to help. Let’s figure out the right path forward together.
