PHOENIX, AZ, November 09, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Brian Fernandez has been included in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
As a young man, Mr. Fernandez entered active military service with U.S. Air Force and was assigned to Grand Forks AFB in North Dakota. After the conclusion of his active duty in the military, he transferred to the Air National Guard and the Air Reserves. His military career consisted of many deployments to include Operation Support Hope and Operation Iraqi Freedom. He concluded his career as a Military War Planner and retired as a Master Sergeant.
During that time, he attempted to expand upon his education but due to his consistent relocation, his studies were completed through the University of North Dakota, Columbia College of Colorado, University of Phoenix and finally graduating Cum Laude from Ottawa University.
While serving in the Air National Guard and Air Reserves he also served his community as a Police Sergeant for the Phoenix Police Department. His early law enforcement career consisted of patrol operations. After being promoted to Sergeant, he managed the Police Reserve Bureau, Volunteer Program and the Phoenix Police Explorers. His last assignment was conducting background investigations by supervising a squad of detectives. His duties also included managing the bureau's pre-academy and employment testing.
During his employment with the police department, Mr. Fernandez expanded upon his studies by earning a Master's Degree in Professional Studies (MPS) in Homeland Security from the Pennsylvania State University in 2017.
Upon retiring from the police department, Mr. Fernandez founded a coffee company, Yellow Spruce Roasters, with which he remains to this day. Though he was initially successful as a coffee roaster/wholesaler, he later expanded to a retail coffee shop, which was awarded Phoenix's Best Coffee House by a local publication in 2021. Driven to contribute to his community, Mr. Fernandez donates $2.00 for every bag sold of their Desert Garda coffee to the Arizona Law Enforcement Emerald Society (ALEES), which assists fallen police officers and their families.
In order to remain aware of changes in the fields in which he has worked, he is affiliated with the American Legion, for which he is the Judge Advocate, American Legion Riders through which he was elected as Vice President, and the Phoenix chapter of the Penn State Alumni Association.
Always motivated, Mr. Fernandez intends to continue excelling with Yellow Spruce Roasters and is looking forward to growing his award-winning company.
