About John Klapperich

Thank you for visiting my profile. No need to stalk.just say hello. I might be able to help you out! As a retired Green Beret Sergeant Major, I bring over 27 years of military experience managing complex projects and solving difficult problems. Discipline, attention to detail, planning, leadership, communication skills, and adherence to concrete values are the bedrocks of my career. After a short stint in consulting, I became an entrepreneur. Now, with two start-ups under my belt, I finally feel like I am contributing to society and making the world just a little better than when I got here! We used to say "always improve your foxhole," and that is just what I like to do! After attending the mandatory military to civilian transition program, I knew there had to be something better, so I started Sextant Consulting to help fellow Special Forces and Special Operations Forces make the difficult transition from military to civilian careers. I started Sweet Sophia LLC with my wife as a creative outlet. She loves crafts and baking, and we have thousands and thousands of bees providing honey and wax, so why not merry the two up! It turns out creating quality products out of natural ingredients is not only a lot of fun, but helps the planet! Save the honeybees - buy local! Areas of particular interest to me- Making things - Financial responsibility and freedom - Reading - Writing - Helping my fellow Veterans transition to civilian world - Apiculture If you are a fellow SF/SOF Warrior and would like to learn more about transitioning from the military to a civilian career, check out my website Or, if you would like some awesome honey or high-quality lip balm or lotion, check out
