I am incredibly honored to welcome General Peter Pace (United States Marine Corps, Retired) into the H.V.M.N. family as a Special Advisor.
General Pace retired from active duty on October 1, 2007, after more than 40 years of service in the United States Marine Corps. General Pace was sworn in as sixteenth Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on Sep. 30, 2005. In this capacity, he served as the principal military advisor to the President, the Secretary of Defense, the National Security Council, and the Homeland Security Council. Prior to becoming Chairman, he served four years as Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. General Pace holds the distinction of being the first Marine to have served in either of these positions.
I initially connected with General Pace towards the end of 2018 and have gotten to know the General over the last few month. It's immediately obvious that he's a true statesman and leader, and I look forward to working closely with him to accelerate H.V.M.N.'s mission of improving human performance through metabolic nutrition.
Geoffrey Woo CEO, H.V.M.N.
