Mark Greene, Retired Navy SEAL, faced an accident that stripped away his protective armor, leaving him unsealed and vulnerable. His journey from college athlete to dropout, SEAL training to enlisted SEAL, and sniper to civilian was met with many adversities. However, amidst the challenges, Mark found strength in his community; he never faced his struggles alone. Navigating his difficult transitions and aiding fellow veterans, Mark identified six predictable phases in any transformation. Embracing these phases serves as a reminder to welcome change and life's transitions with confidence and tenacity.

Despite facing a career-ending injury in football and dropping out of college, Mark Greene's resilience led him to become a Navy SEAL. Along his journey, he earned two master's degrees. As an esteemed author and speaker, he inspires audiences from students at USC to veterans in Virginia. Amid his accomplishments, his true happiness lies in being a devoted father to four wonderful children.

Additionally, Talaria Media is now developing a new comedy series loosely based on stories from Mark Greene’s book “Unsealed” as well as writer and director Jamie Anderson’s own life and relationship with her father, who was himself a veteran. The official logline for the series states it is “about a retired Navy SEAL struggling to adjust to civilian life after he’s forced to work at a new age spiritual center with his estranged daughter.”
