Meet the Instructor

Sgt. Brasai Butler

NYPD · Retired · 20 Years of Service

Twenty years inside the NYPD taught Sgt. Butler what most instructors will never see — firsthand insight into what happens when firearms are used carelessly or illegally, and what it takes to use one the right way.

Her training is built on three uncompromising values: safety, legality, and personal responsibility.
