Redefining the Veteran Narrative: From Broken to Thriving

The journey to purpose unfolds in unexpected ways. From growing up in small-town New Jersey to serving in the U.S. Marine Corps during Desert Storm, Kevin Schmiegel’s path led him through nonprofit leadership and ultimately to founding ZeroMils, a company committed to helping veterans thrive in civilian life. In this episode of the Tango Tango podcast, Lloyd Knight speaks with Marine Corps veteran and ZeroMils founder Kevin Schmiegel. He reflects on his upbringing in Toms River, New Jersey, his ROTC scholarship, and his career as an artillery officer in the Marines. After his service, he transitioned into nonprofit work, ultimately founding Zero Mills to support veterans in thriving beyond military service. They discuss Schmiegel’s military service, the hardships he faced, and how his nonprofit experiences led him to create a new model for veteran success. Today, he’s focused on helping veterans build purpose, opportunity, and community in their post-service lives.

Su motivación: lograr que su trabajo tuviera un impacto real en la vida de otros. Esta transición no solo le abrió los ojos a nuevas realidades, sino que también lo retó a aplicar todo lo aprendido en la empresa privada para hacer más eficientes y efectivas las operaciones de CARE. Hablamos de los enormes retos de la logística en emergencias: desde abastecer comunidades remotas en Uganda hasta reaccionar en cuestión de horas frente a un huracán o conflicto armado. Lo que en el mundo corporativo podría significar “optimizar costos” o “reducir tiempos de entrega”, aquí significa literalmente salvar vidas. Manuel comparte cómo…
