A Veteran, Law Enforcement Expert, and Tactical Instructor

He began his career in the military as an 11 Bravo, deploying to Afghanistan in 2012 and earning a Purple Heart. After four years of military service, he transitioned into law enforcement with the City of Fayetteville, North Carolina, where he spent eight years as a police officer, seven of which were on the Emergency Response Team (S.W.A.T). As a senior team member, Blake specialized in assault operations and was also trained and state-qualified as a sniper. His expertise includes close-quarter combat, hostage rescues, and high-stress shoot/no-shoot situations.

In addition to his S.W.A.T. experience, Blake has undergone specialized training in Personal Security Detail (PSD) work, protecting high-profile individuals such as the President of the United States. He also served as a detective for four years, focusing on combating gangs, cartels, and illegal firearms.
