Lane Kjellsen

Lane Kjellsen founded the company in 2003 after retiring from a 22-year career as a U.S. Army Special Operations Warfighter. During his career, he became a seasoned subject matter expert in small unit tactics, counter-terrorism, and counter-insurgency. His final tour placed him in a principal role as a Combat Developer focused on advancing capabilities in the areas of explosive breaching and thermobaric weapons. As such, he led scientists, technologists, and national laboratories in the development of solutions to mission-critical and mission-essential requirements for counter-terrorism, and counter-proliferation.

Throughout the past 15 years, Lane has focused K2 on providing combat development, counter IED, and security solutions to the US, state, and local governmental agencies as well as to private industry throughout the nation. In so doing, has led the company from a two-person operation to one with currently more than 130 employees.
