I am a United States Army Ranger. I served with the 1st/75th Ranger Regiment Alpha Company, Hunter Army Airfield, Georgia. I completed three tours of duty in support of Operation Enduring Freedom (Afghanistan). I am former dialysis patient and a post kidney transplant survivor. I have also responsibly dealt with PTSD. I have served as a Parks and Recreation Chairman in the City of Commerce and worked for the local newspaper in that community. While at California State Los Angeles University I played a supporting role in starting up a Veteran's Honor Society and was also a member. I also served as the Vice-President of our Veteran Club. I went on to be a Fire Sprinkler Design Engineer and have now opened up my own company that serves to consult businesses and owner in these matters while still maintaining my position with my current employer.
