Each week on “5 Minute Salute” our host Chris Budihas talks to veterans making a difference in their communities. Today, Chris has the honor to speak with Candice Frost of Nightwing.
Short company description:

How do you define success?
Success is finding your purpose and what you’re skilled at in life. Sharing that with others and lighting their fire is the joy of leading.
How did you get started in your field or work?
District of Columbia
What’s one thing we should know that makes your company unique?
Nightwing may be a new name, but we’re no amateurs. Previously part of a leading Fortune 100 company, we became independent in 2024. When we formed Nightwing, we brought a deep set of credentials and an unfaltering commitment to the mission. For over four decades, our team has been providing some of the world’s most technically advanced full-spectrum cyber, data operations, systems integration and intelligence support services to the U.S. government on its most important missions.
What was the biggest obstacle you had to overcome in your business?
When transitioning from the military it’s an uphill sprint to learn. Its best to reflect on areas you succeeded in your past career and bring those with you into your next chapter.
