Business
Adrian is the founder of multiple physical security consultant firms and the Information Technology Network Security Infrastructure conglomerate SOFEX. Providing network and physical security and consulting to both government and private organizations on a global scale.
Personality
Adrian had a knack when it came to managing people and resources. Having a military background, he had a certain standard set for himself and those employed by him. This standard of excellence spread quickly from the top and trickled down. Perfection wasn't something to be expected, it was something to be achieved. Adrian strongly believed that one should work toward perfection and push to surpass those around them. This competitive nature flourished within his physical sectors which prompted Adrian to form a military like structure. Adrian is known well within his companies and enjoys being close to those who word for him. Being a generous man, Adrian hires many veterans and down-on-their-luck minorities with benefits second to none within the industry. During the onset of greediness within his more privatized sectors, Adrian's reputation for being a "stern man" quickly came about. After all he had given them, they asked for more, threw tantrums and threatened to stop working if not placated. So, he laid them all off.
Adrian is an easy man to get along with. He often hosts barbecues and outdoor events for his employees and families in which he pays for out of his own coffers. He himself is a thrill seeker. Having been through the most fear filled and adrenaline fueled situations, the former soldier was always looking for his next fix. He took on things such as sky diving, base jumping, mixed martial arts, and a number of other activities in which he practices with a number of his subordinates. In all reality Adrian was easy going. Military work taught him how to unwind to the extreme and he felt this helped his personal balance and that of his enterprise.
Bio
His life didn't start like like those of the typical business background. Adrian began in the military as an officer where he continued on to lead men in battle. This however was not his only endeavor while commissioned, good Captain then Major Helderbrand took on the challenge of logistics. He learned the intricacies of keeping an organization going and the needs of an individual at the top. His time in the Academy and continued education as a military officer did well to prepare him for the private sector. The work ethics and the standards he had learned stuck with him and translated well into managing his resources and personnel making for flourishing business. It should also be noted that he on occasion accompanied his physical security sections on high risk environment assignments. In short, he did security contracting. Adrian was no lightweight in the world of business politics however. On many occasions he either run out or absorbed competing companies into his own. There was one business however he could never bully, buy, or beat in terms of IT. Silver Linings Enterprises and it's unusually young CEO Melanie Celeste Solomon.
