About Three Cedars

Strength. Endurance. Roots. Cedars hold the line in hard terrain and hard weather — the way disciplined training holds people steady under pressure.

Why We Exist

Most organizations know they should be more prepared. Few know where to start, and fewer can tell the difference between real training and theater. Three Cedars exists to close that gap: honest assessments, practical plans, and training that holds up when it matters — delivered without drama, jargon, or fear-selling.

Leadership

Three Cedars was founded on a career spent leading people through high-stakes decisions:

Law Enforcement

A retired police officer with decades of street-level and command experience — the realities of violence, de-escalation, and response, learned firsthand.

Chief of Police

Served as a chief of police with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs — federal law enforcement command, responsible for policy, training standards, and the safety of officers, staff, and the veterans they protect.

Military Leadership

A Lieutenant Colonel in the Alabama Army National Guard — planning, leading, and training at scale, where preparation is the difference between order and chaos.

How We Work

Disciplined

Everything squared away. No clutter, no theatrics, nothing that doesn't earn its place.

Grounded

Earned authority. We show competence; we don't shout it.

Honest

You get a straight answer about where you stand — even when it's not what you hoped to hear.

Veteran-Proud

The three stars in our emblem honor service. Displayed with respect, never as a gimmick.

What We Are — and Aren't

Three Cedars is a training and consulting firm. We don't provide guard services. We assess your security, build your plan, and train your people — so the capability belongs to you, not to a vendor. Based in Alabama, we train organizations nationwide.
