Benin A., knew he had a choice: spend 20 years in the military or forge a new path. Looking ahead to life at 40 or 45, he asked himself: What do I want my future to look like? After weighing his decisions and educating himself, Benin sought the private sector. Through self-reflection and strategic planning, he built a bridge to a new career. Along the way, he learned that leadership isn’t just about giving orders. It’s about understanding people, adapting, and coaching others to success. Now thriving at Love's Travel Stops, Benin’s journey is a testament to long-term vision, decisive action, and the leadership principles Cameron-Brooks instills in its alumni.
