With over three years of experience as a Recruiting and Retention NCO at Colorado Army National Guard, I am passionate about helping young adults make positive changes in their lives. I use my credentials and skills as a certified personal trainer, nutrition coach, and metabolic technician to engage, educate, and prepare my applicants for the challenges of basic training and the rigors of military service.As a Special Forces Recruiter, I partner with high school and college educators, counselors, and decision makers to offer broad options for their students' post-secondary education and career development. I also build networks with local companies, community organizations, and non-profits in Aurora and the State of Colorado to collaborate and co-brand with. My mission is to spread awareness and create opportunities for individuals and groups to join and benefit from the Army National Guard.
