US ARMY, 2003-2013

graduated from Chinquapin in 1999. He was attending Texas A&M

After serving ten years (two deployments with the 82nd ABN DIV),

2018. He is currently working towards his MBA at Rice University in

LYNN GEISER (SHE/HER)
US ARMY, 1993-2004
Lynn Geiser is a very persistent, passionate, and dedicated military
woman who has seen and been down the path of trauma and tragedy,
but that didn’t stop her. She pursued goals that were beyond selfish
because of her passion for giving back to her sisters in the armed
forces. She separated from the military in 2004 after serving a total
of ten years in the National Guard and active duty in the Army. During
her time exploring who she was and finding her passion, she created
a nonprofit called “Hope4veterans” in 2018. She wanted to do more to
help our sisters in arms; she wanted to be there for her sisters, give
them the tools to succeed and build confidence within themselves.
Lynn Geiser’s journey of trauma and tragedy was changed into
passion and growth for other military women that came across her
path. To learn more, visit www.hope4veterans.org, and follow along
