About

In the military I learned the value of professionalism, efficiency and a sharp appearance. My experience there laid the path towards a higher education. This in turn lead me into a degree in political science, allowing me to learn more about our government as a whole and its goals and functions. Using the knowledge and experience I have achieved I am aiming, long term, towards a position where I can used this knowledge to help others, either in the private or public sector. In short I want to use my natural ability to work with others as a diplomat and negotiator, bridging the gap between people in a manner that leads to success for both sides. Specialties: Photographic Specialist, Public Affairs Operator, Political Scientist, Negotiator, Government liaison.
