About Ryan Strehl

Dedicated Marine Corps officer with over 17 years of service, currently holding the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. I have posses proven leadership experience honed through diverse roles across multiple disciplines. Throughout my career, I have been tested and proven in high-pressure environments highlighted by combat deployments to Afghanistan, where I ensured mission success and the safety of my team under intense conditions. I possess an active TS/SCI clearance with CI Polygraph. I am passionate and deeply committed to mentoring future leaders and continually driving operational excellence across all levels of an organization. As a former NCAA Division I student-athlete, I trained and competed at a high level for three seasons prior to beginning my military career. I currently coach youth tackle football and desire to continue to pursue a path in coaching and athletics beyond my military service.
