Tu Lam

Tu Lam exemplifies leadership towards excellence. He has developed a never-quit attitude and a will to win through years of trials life has given, combined with the unique ability and desire to develop the potential in others. Tu is a decorated Green Beret with almost 23 years of service, an entrepreneur, and a developer of men. First and foremost, he is a dedicated husband and loyal friend. Tu is a lifelong student of self-development used in his storytelling that reflects many of his life adventures.

When Tu was a boy, he and his family fled the communist government of Vietnam in 1979, escaping on an overloaded wooden boat, and eventually arrived in the United States. Tu overcame the unacceptance to different culture and embraced the changes. A Special Forces Uncle and Stepfather raised Tu; he ultimately made his way to serve within the U.S. Special Operations, deploying numerous times before retirement. Tu is now the Founder and CEO of Ronin Tactics, Inc., where he teaches and develops tactical equipment for our military, law enforcement, and civilians. Tu hosted “Knife or Death” on the History Channel, Tu is also a key figure in Call of Duty as “Ronin", and he’s also featured in various magazines and articles.

Tu Lam enjoys traveling around the world with his wife of 22 years, to continue motivating others with his life experiences.
