Bryan arrived at our Battle Born Recovery Residencesby way of Reno Behavioral Health Hospital. Along with substance use disorder (SUD), Bryan also struggles with a mental health diagnosis. A combination referred to as co-occurring disorders. He was uncertain whether the services available at Battle Born were appropriate for him. However, he remained patient and allowed Battle Born staff to bridge that gap to outside therapies, and slowly he began to thrive. While participating in programming at Battle Born, Bryan overcame a DUI while working as an associate professor and researcher at the University of Nevada’s Artificial Intelligence Department. He currently resides in San Francisco, continuing his professional career as a machine learning engineer and regularly makes visits back to Reno and to our Battle Born to facilitate groups for the current residents.
