Meet The Management Team
Todd Hisey
Founder & CEO
Served in the Canadian Army from 2001-2013. Graduate of the Royal Military College. Posted to 1 PPCLI, CFINTCOM, 3 Can Div HQ and 41 CBG. Deployments to Bosnia, Kosovo and Russia.
“During my 22 years with the Canadian Army as an Officer, the phrase Know your Men and Promote their Welfare stuck with me. In 2018, and after nearly six years of PTSD treatment, it was determined that I could no longer work in a traditional role; but I still felt compelled to give back to the community and help my fellow soldiers. In January 2019, The Veteran Hunters launched with a website, podcast, and social media presence and immediately connected with
Veterans.”

I am an outdoors enthusiast with a primary focus on bowhunting and trapping. I have a passion for calling elk.
Success looks very different for everyone. I define mine by creating experiences in the woods, and helping others achieve their goals.

Danny
MB Manager

When out hunting or exploring a new piece of water it is an opportunity to clear my mind and be present with my surroundings. Introducing and sharing with others an experience that has a profound positive effect on myself is so rewarding.
Jason
QC - Manager

As young as I can remember my dad took me hunting and fishing which quickly became a passion.
I take every opportunity to be in the outdoors. I yearly hunt moose, deer, elk, bear, turkey and small game. I also fish in the off season mostly for brook trout. I am thrilled to be able to host Veteran Hunters in Quebec and share my passion for hunting while creating new memories.
