Career Summary
I have spent a great deal of time serving in the military. Beginning in 1985, as a paratrooper
with the 82nd Airborne Division, I have held many positions of responsibility over that time. I
have gone from Army Private to Army Staff Sergeant. In 2003, I transferred from the Army to
the Air Force. In 2012, I attained the rank of Air Force Technical Sergeant. I have trained troops
in aspects of the military ranging from hand-to- hand, to basic marksmanship, to details of
security only gained through experience. One of my continuing goals is to keep increasing my
knowledge and job skills, and to pass that knowledge on to newer members of the military to
prepare them for the ever changing world the US military must face.
