About the Author

Welcome to my website. The primary purpose is to assist you with preparing for Army Officer Candidate School. The secondary purpose is to encourage ​those not already in the pipeline to reach out to a recruiter. This is a challenging program but is absolutely obtainable if it is something you want to do. 

​

My name is Cole and I am from Kansas City, Missouri. I graduated from BCT and went directly to OCS, gaining my commission in 2021. I branched Aviation (15A) and am currently in BOLC. As a member of the Kansas Army National Guard, I have hopes of deploying with my unit in the next couple of years.

 

Since 2017 I have found myself fixing, updating, renovating and managing rental houses in my free time. This "dream job" has turned into a side business and ultimately a source of income, and I feel truly lucky to do this work that I am so passionate about.

​

My other passions include traveling, hiking, and supporting my Kansas City Chiefs. My favorite hike is Flattop Trail in Anchorage because of the beautiful Denali Mountain views (which can be seen from Anchorage despite being 130 miles away). 

 

If you have any questions I am here to answer them. I respond to every single question I receive. You can reach me at stateocs@gmail.com, or on Instagram for a quicker response.

Cheers!
