He led a Marine Reconnaisance team during the operation on Torfan, coming out of that brutal conflict with a medal for valour and an officer's commission. After completing Officer Cadet School, he was invited to the N7 school passing the N1 course and was transferred to the 103rd Division. He received an honourable discharge in 2181 and has been working to build up Penumbra Securities since that time.

Key skills and training include:
*Graduate of the Systems Alliance Interplanetary Combatives Academy (N1 designation)
*Combat Leader and Tactical Advisor
*Drill instructor with a special focus on recruiting, training and leading paramilitary forces
*Systems Alliance-qualified Class II Pilot (Atmospheric, Orbital)
*Systems Alliance-certified Combat Medic (Trauma Speciality)


'''On the other Principals''':
*On Kane: "Kane's a magician; no really he is. Put some raw materials, an omni-tool and an objective in front of him, give him an hour and he conjures tech out of the ether. Could have had his pick of roles back with the Flotilla, but chose us."
*On Kirroe: "Kirroe is an enigmatic collection of contradictions all bundled up together. In business she's this cool, savvy, sharp-minded executive. But in a fight she can be this hot-tempered, impulsive beserker who you wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of."
*On Sam: "I've known Sam a number of years now, she saved my life on Omega back where it all began. I like to think we have an understanding; she sets them up, I knock them down. Worked then and still does now. Though I now know better than to play poker with her..."
*On Yghorl: "Yghorl's a big guy, even for a krogan, but seeing how he tends to his patients there's a real gentleness to him too. Stitched me up more than a few times. Just don't tell him I said that, I've seen him knock an elcor out cold with a head-butt."
