Petty Officer Third Class Terry Weaver

Terry Weaver considers himself to be a survivor. He grew up in a rundown suburb of Los Angeles. His mother was sent to prison for dealing drugs and his father suffered from drug addiction until Terry was 13. Instead of letting his circumstances determine who he was and what he could become, Terry decided to make the best of his circumstances. He ran away from home at age 16 and finished high school in a new town.

Immediately after graduation, Terry joined the Navy where he attended the Hospital Corps School and graduated with distinction. He was deployed to both Kuwait and Iraq where he gained emergency response experience and a deep appreciation for our country and all the freedoms it affords us. Terry proudly served our country for five years and then decided to continue his education and build a career in business.

He took a two year break from school to work in the field of marketing and grew to love this aspect of business strategy. Terry is now finishing his education at Texas A&M University, successfully balancing his schoolwork and a family of four. After surviving a challenging childhood and serving a critical role in the Navy, he is confident he can accomplish his ultimate career goal and one day own his own business.
