"I have spent the past 14 years of my life serving my country in the United States Navy in a variety of career fields, activities, and deployments. At each command I was assigned to, I had different jobs, positions, I always put my sailors and command first. Within my ten-year in the Navy I have acquired the skills in operations and logistics engagement, safety, HAZMAT, training, education, career counseling, and career development. Those who I work for and with has been my number one priority."
