The daily grind of war reporting is where Lea Greene first cut her teeth on crisis communication. Serving active duty in the U.S. Air Force, Lea was a broadcast journalist covering stories in the Republic of Korea, Germany, Bosnia, and Iraq for American Forces Network.

Two decades later, Lea is still in the trenches of public relations. Her passion project, Top Ten Communication, LLC, applies military lessons to help business owners build trust and loyalty with their customers, even in the face of adversity.

Having traveled the world, she can be found working outside at her hobby farm in North Dakota, where she and her son continually add to a petting-zoo-worthy list of animals—much to the chagrin of her adoring husband.
