My dedication to furthering my education, both at the collegiate and professional levels, exhibits my commitment to growth, which I use to lead others as an innovative leader and thinker and move organizations and companies forward. I am committed to excellent customer service, for which I have received formal recognition from the Division Artillery Commander on several occasions, both in country and abroad. Overcoming many obstacles in my journey has taught me the value of balance, accountability, respect, diversity, and integrity.
