Bio 

I was an over-the-road truck driver for 18 years after getting out of the Marine Corps. I got tired of being gone all the time. My wife, who I was dating at the time asked me what I wanted to do if I wasn't driving anymore. I told her I would like to get into the medical field. We looked into it and Medical Assistant was something that I could complete quickly and build upon from there. I am currently a Medical Assistant at the University of Michigan. I have worked in Pulmonary Critical Care, Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, and Pediatric Cancer Infusion. I am also going to college to obtain a Bachelors Degree in Healthcare Administration. I should have my Associates by the Summer of 2017.
