Lesslie
Founder/Operations Director
11 Year Coast Guard Veteran
8 Years of Veteran Advocacy
I remember the first time a Veteran called me and said, “Lesslie, thank you. I just bought groceries and didn’t have to worry about paying my rent.” In that moment, I knew this was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
Kolby
Founder/Technical Engineer
4 Year Coast Guard Veteran
Electronics Engineering Technology Degree
I didn’t know I was eligible for VA services until 15 years after leaving the military. I know there are many Veterans like me, and I wanted to be part of the change our community needs.

Mike generously shared his wisdom and helped lay the foundation for our community’s development. His passing on February 20, 2023, was a profound loss, but his contributions remain at the heart of everything we do. Mike’s unwavering dedication to supporting Veterans was truly inspiring. For him, it was never about the money — it was about ensuring Veterans received the healing they deserved so they could live long, fulfilling lives with their families. We are forever grateful for his love and commitment to VSOP.

As a Veteran who has navigated the process myself, I understand how overwhelming it can be. My passion is to educate and support fellow Veterans as they navigate the complexities of the VA system and access the services available to them.

I am passionate about improving economic, educational, and mental health outcomes in the communities I belong to. VSOP’s mission aligns with my life’s work and gives me the opportunity to further those goals in a meaningful way.

Over 15 years in the Medical Field
Watching my husband retire from the military and transition to civilian life made me realize there has to be a better way to navigate this life-changing event. I knew that if I could help make this transition smoother for others, that’s what I wanted to do.
