I started my service in Oklahoma. There I was trained as a 13D. After my training I was stationed in South Korea for a year near Camp Casey. I was then attached to 18th Fires Brigade, 3-321 FA (Fort Bragg) where I deployed with my unit to Afghanistan.
Currently, I work for a medical company as an IT administrator for multiple Federally regulated systems.
