Maggie is the Founder/Owner and Lead Instructor for Homeland Personal Protection Firearms Training. Her training is geared towards defensive shooting to defend against a potential lethal threat here in our Homeland, USA. As a female firearms instructor teaching the Certification Course for Multi-State Conceal Carry Weapon Permits, Maggie is known in the industry as CCW Maggie. Maggie is a Wife to a very supportive husband of (16) years, a Mom of (2) beautiful children and is a Woman who understands the importance of self-defense as a fundamental right.
Maggie offers Defensive Firearm Training Courses as a Certified DFC – Defensive Firearms Coach through I.C.E. Training’s DFC Program which is powered by IDS – Intuitive Defensive Shooting. She is currently focused on becoming a Certified IDS Instructor and going through the vetting process to achieve ACTIVE STATUS. Maggie has taken training from several schools and instructors and feels the IDS Program has answered the technical “WHY” questions where other programs failed to. Maggie feels the IDS program is “The Program” that offers a realistic approach to defensive shooting based on science, physics, human performance factors and empirical evidence. Maggie is committed to having her students take away so much more than a plastic card that allows a person to Carry a Concealed Firearm. Her desire is that students develop personal skills through her instruction that may potentially save their lives or the life of a loved one.
Maggie currently offers several different training courses to Civilians, Law Enforcement, Armed Professionals and our Military.
Her most distinguished accomplishment to date was working with and training our great Marines at Camp Pendleton’s Edson Range in CA. Maggie is the first female non-military commissioned Instructor to train at Camp Pendleton making it a Life Changing event to always remember. A sign that the training was a success was when she was invited to bring her programs back to the base.
