At Beyond the Uniform, Justin interviews military veterans about their civilian careers. His goal is to provide both active duty members & veterans of the Armed Forces with the resources they need to be successful in their civilian careers. Resources and podcasts can be viewed at www.BeyondTheUniform.io.
Justin is the Founder & CEO of StoryBox, and started Beyond the Uniform as a side project to help active-duty military personnel. Justin is an ENFP who lives in San Francisco with his ENTJ wife (and inspiration) Rebecca and their ESFP dog Hemingway (Hemi).
Justin studied Electrical Engineering at the United States Naval Academy, where he received what’s been dubbed “a $200k education shoved up your [censored] a nickel at a time.” He also received the world’s finest education in leadership, serving as the Brigade Performance and Conduct Officer and the President of the Men’s Glee Club (note: as a result, Rebecca refers to herself as the First Lady).
Justin served as an officer with the incredible crew of the USS Alaska (SSBN 732) and for a far-too-brief time with the USS Chicago. This training was the single biggest asset to his experience as an entrepreneur, helping him break through walls, push himself beyond his limits, and occasionally fight giant squid and flirt with mermaids.
