Veteran Entrepreneur Workshop | Speaker Spotlight: David Lonergan + Triple.Threat.Transformation

Next in our Veteran Entrepreneur Workshop Speaker Spotlight series, we’re featuring David Lonergan, U.S. Marine Corps veteran and founder of Triple Threat Transformation.

David brings a perspective that connects entrepreneurship with discipline, mindset, personal growth, and community. His work reflects the idea that building a business is not only about the service you provide, but also about how you lead, adapt, stay consistent, and create something that can make a real impact.

As part of our Entrepreneur Panel, David will join the conversation around leadership, building with purpose, lessons learned, staying resilient through challenges, and what it looks like to turn experience and passion into something sustainable.

The workshop is designed for veterans, service members, Guard and Reserve members, military spouses, and military families who are exploring entrepreneurship, preparing to launch, or already building a business. Attendees will also have the opportunity to connect with fellow entrepreneurs and learn about resources available within our local community.

Veteran Entrepreneur Workshop | Speaker Spotlight: Steven C. Thompson + Diamond Residential Mortgage Corporation

Next in our Veteran Entrepreneur Workshop Speaker Spotlight series, we’re highlighting Steven C. Thompson, U.S. Marine Corps veteran, entrepreneur, mortgage professional, and veteran advocate.

Steven served in the Marine Corps from 1999 to 2003, including deployment to Kuwait in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. His military experience helped shape the discipline, adaptability, and commitment to service that he continues to bring into his professional and entrepreneurial work today.

After transitioning from military service, Steven worked for Clark County, launched his own preservation contracting business, and later built a career in mortgage lending. Over the past six years, he has helped more than 470 homeowners navigate the lending process and pursue their homeownership goals. Today, he serves as Branch Manager at Diamond Residential Mortgage Corporation.

Steven also serves on the Board of Directors for the Veterans Association of Real Estate Professionals (VAREP), where he advocates for veterans and supports real estate professionals committed to serving their communities.

Steven will join our Entrepreneur Panel to share his perspective on transitioning from military service, entrepreneurship, building a new career, serving clients and communities, and the lessons he has learned along the way.

The workshop is designed for veterans, service members, Guard and Reserve members, military spouses, and military families who are exploring entrepreneurship, preparing to launch, or already building a business. Attendees will also have the opportunity to connect with fellow entrepreneurs and learn about resources available within our local community.

Veteran Entrepreneur Workshop | Community Partner Spotlight

As we get closer to our Veteran Entrepreneur Workshop on September 26, we’re excited to highlight one of the incredible community partners helping make this event possible: the UNLV Patent & Trademark Resource Center, powered by SWITCH.

For entrepreneurs, protecting an idea, business name, product, or brand can feel overwhelming. The UNLV Patent & Trademark Resource Center helps make that process more approachable by providing access to patent and trademark research resources, trained experts, research consultations, educational workshops, and one-on-one guidance.

We’re especially grateful to the UNLV PTRC team for not only joining us as a workshop presenter, but also for welcoming the Charlie-Mike Foundation and our veteran and military-connected community into UNLV Lied Library for this event.

Partnerships like this help us connect veterans, service members, Guard and Reserve members, military spouses, and military families with trusted local resources they can continue turning to as they build and grow their businesses.

A huge thank you to Jeff Meyer and the entire TuffNUff team for opening their doors to the Charlie-Mike Foundation and our veteran community during Tuff-N-Uff 154.

Our veterans were given a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to bring a live MMA event to life — from production and operations to media, marketing, athlete coordination, and fight-night logistics.

This was more than a tour. It was an opportunity for veterans to connect with industry professionals, explore career pathways in sports entertainment, and see firsthand the teamwork, discipline, and preparation that happen long before the lights come on.

We are incredibly grateful to Jeff and Tuff-N-Uff for welcoming our veterans with such care, respect, and generosity. Partnerships like this help create access, connection, and new possibilities for those who have served.

Thank you, Tuff-N-Uff, for supporting our mission and helping veterans continue theirs.
