Wrapping up another incredible week at the Naval Postgraduate School’s NPS Center for Homeland Defense and Security! I’m continually amazed and grateful to be part of such an extraordinary cohort, filled with talented professionals from across the nation. The collaboration, ideas, and friendships we’re building here are truly unmatched. This week’s highlights included learning directly from leaders from U.S. Space Force, U.S. Coast Guard, CISA, and DHS, who shared their invaluable insights into the complexities of national security and emergency preparedness. The caliber of instruction and the depth of discussions make this program an unforgettable experience. Proud to be part of a community committed to safeguarding our nation’s future. Here’s to the incredible work we’ll all take back to our organizations! ?? #Leadership #HomelandSecurity #NationalPreparedness #CHDS
