“I was in the middle of my 4-year contract with the United States Army during OIF III, when I realized that I needed to channel my energy into a hobby that would help tune out the constant noise of Apache helicopters and static radio reports. I started designing t-shirts instead of taking prescribed anti-depressants and sleeping pills, which seemed to be the only other option. Alternate Decision represents my hope for a successful and positive life after combat, and sparks the conversation about how we can support our troops – before, during and after their contracts.”
