Who We Are
PTMA is built on a foundation of real-world experience and training along side diverse professional expertise.
Our founder and network of contractors bring decades of combined services from high-stakes environments that provide a deep understanding of the critical needs when it comes to preparedness, safety, and operational continuity.
Founder
PTMA was founded to close the gap between plans on paper and performance under pressure. With experience spanning crisis operations, training, and risk reduction, our founder focuses on solutions teams can actually use.

- Designing and leading large-scale training initiative for public safety personnel and organizational staff

This diverse blend of operational and human-focused expertise enables PTMA to deliver solutions that are both practical and mindful of the people that they serve.
