The Bio
Stuart spent “six years, eight months and eight days” on active duty as an Infantry soldier with the 9th Infantry Division (MTZ) at Fort Lewis, WA. Although he made rank quickly, earned his undergraduate degree while on active duty and was recognized as the 1998 9th ID, I-Corp and FORSCOM Soldier of the Year, he says he makes “a better veteran than a soldier.”
Sought after by his fellow veterans, he is tireless in his efforts to help them successfully transition and either find employment or start and operate their own small businesses.
He has been recognized by SHRM Atlanta and Rotary International for his Veteran advocacy work and is a 2018 Inductee in the Brevard County, Florida Public Service Hall of Fame. He has led the Military Affairs Council of the Cocoa Beach Regional Chamber of Commerce and is a founding board member of the Florida Association of Veteran Owned Businesses – Space Coast Chapter and is the 2021-22 Chair. He is a member of the Disabled American Veterans, American Legion, and life member of the Brevard County Veterans Memorial Center.
For the past fifteen years he has provided facilitation services to support business and process improvement, strategic and operations planning and change management to for-profit companies, government agencies and non-profits to help them accelerate results.
