About Blue Ocean Trace

This company was founded on a simple premise — the capability gap in maritime domain awareness is real, and the people who understand it best are the ones best positioned to solve it. The result is a maritime security technology company building next-generation tools for government agencies and commercial operators.

Over 30 years of combined U.S. Army service, defense contracting, and government civilian experience spanning maritime domain awareness, space operations, satellite communications, cyber operations, and intelligence data fusion inform every aspect of this platform. Assignments include U.S. Southern Command, Southwest Asia Cyber Center, U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command, Defense Information Systems Agency, Joint Task Force — Global Network Operations (predecessor of U.S. Cyber Command), 82nd Airborne Division, and 112th Signal Battalion (Special Operations)(Airborne). Multiple combat and combat support deployments. Active Top Secret/SCI clearance with CI Polygraph. This is not a platform built by engineers guessing at operator needs — it was built by the operator who lived them.

Persistent, actionable maritime awareness — delivered to the operators and organizations responsible for protecting critical assets. From port facilities and nearshore approaches to open ocean operations, every feature in this platform exists because a real operational requirement demanded it.

Registration in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) is active, UEI: HTJ1BVH42GH5. All operations are conducted in full compliance with U.S. export control requirements including EAR, ITAR, and OFAC sanctions programs. Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) certification is in process through the SBA Veteran Small Business Certification program — upon certification, eligibility for federal set-aside contracts and sole-source awards under SDVOSB procurement programs will apply.

As the CEO, I operate in full compliance with U.S. federal export control laws and regulations, including EAR, ITAR, and OFAC sanctions programs. Services are not provided to individuals, entities, or government bodies located in — or acting on behalf of — countries subject to U.S. sanctions or export restrictions as designated by the Departments of State, Commerce, or Treasury. I reserve the right to decline any engagement that conflicts with U.S. law or national security interests.

Qualified government and commercial inquiries are welcome. Engagement is direct — with decision-makers and procurement officers. If maritime security or offshore asset protection falls within your responsibility, this conversation is worth having.
