About Ophidian Tactical Solutions

I am a certified instructor with the USCCA and a US Navy Veteran.  I have been involved with firearms since early on in my military career and became an instructor in 2021.  I'm based in Atlanta and train at several locations around the city.

I specialize in Concealed Carry and Basic Handgun courses and I also have a Women's Handgun class.  My main goal is to teach new shooters the basics and also to reach under represented and marginalized groups that may be new to the 2A community
