About Mark Guzman

Over 30 years of experience in special operations, mission planning, operational planning, intelligence, and advanced special operations techniques derived from conducting operations and training worldwide. I enjoy a wealth of knowledge and am skilled in performing a wide variety of duties in ambiguous situations to ensure smooth and efficient operations. I have led teams ranging in size from 2 to over 800 U.S. and foreign civilian, paramilitary, and military personnel in dynamic, fast - paced environments. I\'m proficient in various Microsoft Office Suite software applications and am experienced at managing resources and influencing operations while balancing risk upon multiple lines of effort to accomplish mission objectives and the expectations of senior leadership. I possess extensive knowledge of Afghanistan, Africa, Central, and South America. My diverse knowledge of cultural understanding, regional expertise, foreign language capability, humility, comfort with ambiguity, and the ability to make rapid adjustments has enabled me to develop and implement new policies, programs, and procedures while encouraging new ideas and innovative approaches to accomplishing the mission at hand.
