Bio
I am currently employed for a company I absolutely love and I love coming to work every day. I make good money training junior and senior Marine aviation mechanics to better take care of their aircraft. I am able to see immediately if I have had an impact in the training I provide. My 30 years in the Marine Corps and all of my experiences are paying dividends for me and them.
Military Experiences

Aviation Maintenance Chief
Birthplace of MV-22 Osprey Aviation, its a training command so we are talking over 400 Marines, Sailors, and Airman. Extremely challenging building brand new squadrons that dont even have planes ready for them. Once thats done, do it again!!!! Very rewarding experience.

Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) - Afghanistan
Deployed to Bagram Airfield in north eastern Afghanistan near the Peshwar Valley. HMH-769 was a reserve Marine CH-53E unit that did great things and even won the Helicopter Squadron Of The Year award for their very hard work. It really changed my thoughts on a reserve unit, great people!!!!!!!
