Military Experience: 4.6 years

Work Experience:

Diverse experience both in and outside of the military. Prior to the military i worked in warehouses (AB InBev, Medline) and as a welder on oil tanks and pressure vessels. Joined the US Air Force as a computer programmer where i worked as a developer and as a software assurance analyst. After 5 years I retrained and went to flight school for the MQ-9 Reaper and have been instructing/flying combat lines since June 2018. In my military career i've held multiple different leadership positions, worked in server rooms to include network/electrical wiring, and currently hold a TS/SCI clearance. My MQ-9 experience involves a deep understanding of electrical systems on the aircraft and in the GCS to a level of being able to diagnose, troubleshoot, and resolve problems in a "time-sensitive" and stressful environment.

Im very interested in leadership positions, as well as active labor intensive jobs that keep me on my feet. Mostly focused on welding and electrical/lineman type work as those are my greatest experience strengths.
