From Intel to Impact: The Entrepreneurial Journey of Kate Hufnagel

The VET S.O.S. Network’s Veteran Entrepreneur Spotlight welcomes Kate Hufnagel, founder of Digital Wrangler. With a 25-year career in the intelligence community and big tech, Kate now channels her skills into helping families and small business owners organize critical digital information—from passwords and documents to legacy planning—ensuring continuity and peace of mind when it matters most.

In this conversation, Kate and host Maurice Murphy discuss:

The mindset shift from intel professional to entrepreneur.
Why resilience and preparation are the cornerstones of business success.
The frustrations and rewards of building a purpose-driven business.
How Digital Wrangler bridges technology and compassion for clients.
The importance of normalizing conversations about legacy and continuity.

Kate also shares her lighter side—her decade-long quest to find the world’s best donut (current titleholder: Blue Star Donuts in Portland, Oregon).

🎙️ This episode is a must-listen for veterans, entrepreneurs, and military families looking to blend impact, business, and legacy.
