Who runs it.

Kiano Leach

Founder & Principal

Kiano founded Borgia and still runs details himself, most often as officer in charge on the largest engagements. The firm's operating culture — the written order, the soft-hands standard, the insistence that advance work is where protection is actually done — is his.

Chris Leach

Director of Operations

Chris runs the operational side of the business — staffing details, coordinating with venues, vendors and clients, and holding the static and communications picture during an event. On the ground he is usually the person making sure the plan on paper survives contact with a live venue.

Twenty-six years of operations management sit behind that — most of it spent owning and running businesses outright: hiring and training crews, negotiating vendor contracts, and holding scheduling, logistics and billing together across several sites at once. It is the same job a protective detail needs done, with higher stakes and a shorter timeline.

He is also a firefighter with fire science training and service with two departments. That background is a large part of why emergency planning on a Borgia detail is treated as a discipline rather than a formality: the nearest trauma center is named and routed before a principal ever arrives, and somebody on the ground has actually done the thing being planned for.

Brandon Trube

Chief Technology Officer

Brandon built the operational platform the firm runs on, and holds the command net during events — the single node all radio traffic routes through. He wrote Borgia's radio doctrine and delivers the training behind it, on the principle that radios are operational tools, not conversations. Two decades of enterprise service delivery sit behind that: twenty-four-hour service desks built from nothing, teams across three shifts, and systems other people's work depended on.

He also owns Trube Technologies, an executive IT practice for private clients whose technology carries the same exposure their calendars do — devices, accounts, home networks, and the people permitted to touch them. Handled quietly, by one accountable person rather than a help desk. Outside both firms he is a licensed amateur radio operator, and built and maintains the IT and emergency-communications infrastructure for a county emergency-services organization.
