Bio
I’m a vision-driven leader with over 20 years of service in the military, law enforcement, and emergency management field. I have exceptional communication skills which I developed and honed as a law enforcement officer, adjunct professor, and an instructor for the Department of Defense and/or Department of the Army.
Military Experiences
Jan 1987 - Sep 1994
Sergeant
I held various positions of responsibility and leadership, culminating as a Sergeant; domestically and internationally. I deployed with my unit to both Desert Shield and Desert Storm; awarded a combat patch for both the 20th Airborne Engineer Brigade and 24th Infantry Division. My battalion was awarded the Meritorious Unit Citation for our participation in the war; however, my company was exclusively awarded the Valorous Unit Award for our individual unit’s accomplishments. I was a combat engineer, attending Jungle School and completing/graduating Sapper School as a Corporal; which is a course specifically focused on Staff Sergeant and above.
