Bio
I maintained photosensors systems on fighter jets, and the support equipment necessary to support them. I sustained a Traumatic Brain Injury during Operation Allied Force in Europe, and separated shortly thereafter with PTSD and 'Permanent moderate brain damage' (love the bedside manor of Army Docs...)
After separation I found it impossible to procure adequate employment in my field, so used my GI Bill to complete a degree in Nursing. I hope to complete state certification so I may accept an appointment in a mental facility to help other PTSD sufferers, especially vets.
