Summary

On today's episode, Dennis sits down with 12 year Special Operations Marine Corps veteran and founder and CEO of Alexander Industries, Nick Koumalatsos. Nick was born in Hollywood Florida. He grew up on the move and lived in 5 states by the time he was twelve. This only made him more adaptable and comfortable with integrating into any environment. Nick was forced into juvenile detention at the age of twelve. After shaking his past Nick needed to find a new direction.

Nick joined the Marine Corps at 19 but not without a fight. Because of his troubled youth, Nick had to seek legal counsel just to be accepted. He suffered from a wrist injury within his first week of bootcamp. He spent five and a half months in basic training but graduated company honor grad. It was his perseverance through adversity that set the tone for his future and a foreshadowing of things to come.

Nick went on to become a 12 year Special Operations Marine Corps veteran with Marine Reconnaissance and Marine Special Operations Command. He has deployed in support of OIF/OEF and other places all over the world. Has trained foreign police, military, and militia in several countries.

Today, Nick discusses growth & self-development, lessons he learned form his childhood mistakes and the unfortunate truth of unhealthy lifestyles of law enforcement across America.
