Bio
I was in the military for 20 years and recently retired 01OCT2019. Recently I was assigned to the 101st Airborne Division as the Division Orders Manager Supervisor. I like to increase my professional growth by being the overall lead and chief of the section, which I did until I retired. Retirement transition is a difficult road to go down, but I look forward to my next journey in life.
