Work Experience:

I grew up in humble beginnings, and worked in the manufacturing industry after high school. I later joined the Army as a Laboratory Technician in 2016, where I received many honors throughout my first contract. I later joined the JAG Corps as an Army Reserve Paralegal and was promoted quickly to Sergeant. I was very successful at managing, mentoring, and leading my brigade office.

I was honorably discharged from the Army in January 2024 and have been working towards earning my Bachelor's Degree in Business, which I will be graduating with in December 2025. Recently, I have had a change of heart, though, and I am very interested in getting into a trade.
