Superscript

Who we are.

My name is Quinlan Myers. I am a Texan Native, Veteran, and animal lover. I joined the Army in 2022 with the opportunity to serve in the 75th Ranger Regiment as an Infantryman, eventually becoming a K9 handler. The unit instilled a strong sense of discipline and gave me life skills I am forever grateful for. The K9 program taught me how to put it into action.  The Lucky Dutchie is my best friend, and I was lucky enough to be able to adopt him prior to separating from the Army.
