VETERANS TRIBUTE EDITION | BUILT AMERICA MAGAZINE

Advice For Veterans: Stay Small, Stay Humble, Find Your People

Philip offers fellow veterans guidance shaped by his own journey: “Don’t be afraid to start at the bottom. Don’t be afraid to take orders from a stranger. Surround yourself with people who share your values. Find a mentor with good intentions.” One lesson he always returns to is this: “You’re going to fail. Don’t be afraid of that. Learn. Improve. And make sure the work you walk away from is something you’re proud of.”
