Overview

Lieutenant Kate 'Lanza' Markson, at the age of 41, boasts a storied past deeply rooted in the UCAS military. His journey began as a young recruit, where he quickly distinguished himself through a combination of tactical acumen and unwavering determination. Rising through the ranks, he faced numerous challenges, earning respect for his leadership skills and adaptability in the field.

During a particularly intense mission, Kate displayed remarkable marksmanship, earning him the nickname 'Lanza,' a nod to his proficiency with a wide range of weaponry. The moniker stuck, becoming an emblem of his prowess and earning him a reputation as a sharpshooter among his peers.

After a distinguished career in the military, Kate transitioned into civilian life, seeking a new challenge. Drawn to the unique approach of Seattle Software and Special Investigations (S3I), he joined the private security firm, bringing his wealth of experience to the organization. Rather than stepping away from the action, Kate found himself taking on a crucial role as an Instructor at S3I, mentoring and shaping the next generation of agents.

Beyond his professional life, Kate is a devoted spouse and mother of two children. His dedication to his family mirrors his commitment to his work, balancing the demands of a high-stakes career with the responsibilities of parenthood. As 'Lanza,' he continues to impart his knowledge and skills to S3I recruits, ensuring that the legacy of excellence she cultivated in the military persists within the ranks of the private security firm.
