Bio
Over my 23 year career, I have held all leadership positions for each of the respective ranks. Since being promoted to MSG, my new goals are to serve as a 1SG ASAP, finish my masters degree within the next year, and maintain a competitive record until I retire. If Big Army selects me for SGM before I hang up my boots great, if not, I know I did my best.
