Army and Air Force Veteran

I'm a veteran of both the US Army and US Air Force. In the Army, I had the honor of being a lead mechanic in a wartime environment before joining the US Air Force's Security Forces. Through the Air Force and civilian employment, I have been a dedicated security professional with 17 years of experience in physical security. In 2017 after moving from South Florida to Colorado, I realized that most jobs that kept me out of the snow were technology-based. With encouragement from my family and the great staff at the location where I was providing physical security for went back to school and earned my Bachelor of Science in Information Technology with a focus on Security, and a CompTIA Security+ certification.
