Miguel Santos

Army veteran, now a high school teacher

18 years of it, lived first-hand.

Twelve years in the Army, two deployments, then a very quiet classroom. The transition to civilian life nearly broke me before it made sense. I talk plainly about the parts nobody warns you about.

What I'm glad to talk about

  • Military-to-civilian transition, finding purpose after service, going back to school later, PTSD and asking for help
