TakePoint was proudly founded by Leo II, a decorated and combat-disabled U.S. Army veteran whose journey from military service to entrepreneurship is rooted in leadership, discipline, humbleness, commitment and service to others.
Leo II completed a combat tours as an 11A officer with an elite light infantry unit, operating in high-threat environments. He also deployed as a 66H surgical RN, serving on a Forward Support FAST team as part of a Combat Support Hospital, where he provided critical trauma care in austere battlefield conditions.
Following active duty, he continued his service as a Military Police (MP) in the U.S. Army Reserves, and as a contractor bringing together his operational, medical, and leadership experience. He was medically retired as an 100% vet after two separate enlistments, concluding a distinguished military career that now fuels the mission of TakePoint.

We used this company for my father’s 60th birthday and Leo was amazing! Not only was he our armed security, he helped us decorate a bit when he noticed we were behind our party schedule. He also stayed later than he was supposed to in order to ensure our guest were safe. We greatly appreciate that he was willing to stay without hesitation. I would 100% hire this team for another event, they were punctual and communication was spot on. Ali Nasiri2025-08-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Alexis Taylor2025-05-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My experience was nothing short of amazing. From the beginning, the communication was on point which carried over into the overall experience. I hired a driver for a night out with some friends who were visiting out of town and didn’t want to drive or rely on uber. The service far exceeded our expectations and honestly made the night so much more memorable. The safety and care was much appreciated. 100/10 recommend and I plan on using the services in the future. Ray Sanchez2025-05-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
