Veteran Overview

My successful military career is a badge of honor. Joining the Navy on September 12, 2001, is a decision I made with pride in my country. My rate designation as an Aerographer's Mate provided me with outstanding duty stations, intriguing yet challenging training opportunities, and a desire to maintain leadership roles in the fleet. I am proud of my 19-year-old self for making a scary yet rewarding choice to join the world's greatest Navy during a time of fear and uncertainty. Fair winds and following seas, U.S.A.
