Biography:

Security Clearance: Secret Clearance

Military Experience: 14.1 years

Work Experience: 9.8 years

Work Experience:

I served in multiple capacities as a traditional drilling soldier and full time support staff in the National Guard from 2008-2022. I enlisted as a Combat Engineer, reclassed to Blackhawk Helicopter Repairer, and ended my career as a Supply Sergeant. I bring a wide variety of technical skills and dedication to every task. Before the military I worked in EMS from 2003-2008 and was a Shop Steward with Teamsters 294, worked as a ground agent for Southwest Airlines in 2012 as a bargaining unit member of TWU 555, and while serving as a dual status Federal Technician from 2013-2017 I was a member of AFGE. I am looking for a post military career, not a job, within organized trades. I currently reside in NY but will be relocating to Michigan where both my wife and I have family.
