Bio 

Thanks to my service in the navy I now look at the world through a different view, things that many people would blow off I look into and see the possibilities it brings. After the military I have thought about college the only thing is what do i go for there are many options but i got some time before i decide so for now i just live my life the best i can and enjoy the little things.

Deployments

(2 years, 9 months)
Feb 2015 - May 2015
Southeast Asia
This was a hard deployment for me for it was my last deployment with the USS Blue Ridge crew I wish I could serve with them a little bit longer but my time on the ship was up the last two port I went to with the ship was China and Singapore. The time I spent with my shipmates were treasured ones.
Jan 2014 - Oct 2014
Southeast Asia
We did our usual run about Asia we went to places like Malaysia Indonesia and Thailand. The time on this deployment was extended giving us a little more time to spend in foreign ports which was amble time to go out and experience the different culture of each port.
Feb 2013 - Oct 2013
Southeast Asia
This deployment started just after the beginning of February where we went to South Korea, Hong Kong, and one of my favorite ports Australia. This being my first time to Australia I took every opportunity to go off the ship and explore and the food as well as beer were absolutely amazing.
Jan 2012 - Oct 2012
Southeast Asia
The deployment started in late January with a trip to northern Japan for an ice festival after that we went back down to Yokosuka for a couple weeks and then we went back out to sea and went around the Asia pacific, this deployment was special for me because although it was my first deployment I was able to become a shellback.
