CREDENTIALS
ADJUNCT INSTRUCTOR
Tina became a firearms instructor because she believes that everyone has the inalienable right to defend themselves. Since the age of 5, Tina attended Martial Arts school and became a certified instructor, so being able to protect herself has always been an important skill for her. As an adult, Tina enjoys empowering others, especially women, through defense training and teaching the number one rule in firearms- Safety FIRST!
When Tina first began shooting, she wished there were more women around to assist. Even before Tina became an instructor, when she would visit the range, women would ask for her assistance and advice regarding firearms and shooting. Tina recognized they were comfortable in approaching her and eager to learn. It was then that Tina knew she wanted to be the face for women who may be hesitant to train but desired to learn. Tina’s goal is to provide a safe, encouraging space where anyone with an interest can come and learn.
