Tajuana Cabell

For more than thirty years, TaJuana Cabell has built her career on understanding that difference. She entered the Metropolitan Police Department as a cadet in 1992 and spent fourteen years in law enforcement, earning the department's Blue Medal of Valor in 2000. What began as an instinct for noticing what others overlooked became a professional discipline: reading the room, assessing the route, watching the crowd, and anticipating the threat before it has the opportunity to become one.

That discipline carried her into private executive protection, where she has protected entertainers, executives, public figures, and senior leadership in environments where privacy and precision matter. Her work has taken her behind rope lines, into major venues, across international borders, and onto details where the client's identity itself is part of what must be protected. Her experience includes multiple Super Bowls between 2015 and 2023 and an international protection assignment in Ghana after being specifically requested by name.

As Founder and Chief Executive of Athena Universal Protection Services, TaJuana has built the company around the same standard she carries personally: preparation before presence, discretion without compromise, and accountability from the first advance to the final departure.

AUPS is not built around the appearance of protection. It is built around what protection makes possible.
