Lieutenant Commander Marshall Boyd joins the WWS team after completing his executive officer tour at the Naval Special Warfare Development Group in Virginia Beach, Virginia, where he managed a special operations team as the second in command. Marshall is a Naval Officer and active duty Navy SEAL. Commissioned in 2004 as a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy with a B.S. in systems engineering, he began his SEAL training immediately after he left the Naval Academy. Over a 14-year career, he has led extensively in various levels of combat, and has executed missions spanning the entire spectrum of Naval Special Warfare capabilities. Marshall served extensively in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Middle East, and Africa. His most recent assignment required him to be a key interlocutor for the U.S. military war effort and fight against violent extremist organizations. Once rounds are complete at WWS, he intends to serve on the Joint Staff at the Pentagon, focusing his attention towards DoD policy for special operations. Marshall and his wife look forward to the year ahead, spending time with their new daughter, and exploring Princeton and the surrounding community.
