I am currently a full-time Dad, helping my wife to raise our son. Most recently I was employed on the front lines of the COVID-19 epidemic as an Asset Protection Associate (Security Guard) for Giant. My responsibilities included ensuring the safety of customers, associates and property. This was enacted through foot patrols, door guard duty and CCTV observation. Additionally, I utilized CCTV recordings for theft and fraud investigation as well as contact tracing for COVID-19 exposure.Research and writing are my passion and I have been published in print as a journalist. I have 25 years of work experience in the restaurant industry and retail sales as well as owning and operating a small pet services business.In my previous sales position, I generated nearly 50k in face to customer sales during my first three months on the job. This was done selling $20 a piece beverage mixes in big box stores utilizing a roadshow style of sales.I have been awarded a Certificate in Paralegal Studies from Montgomery College. At MC I enjoyed learning from some of the area's most experienced legal professionals including judges, prosecutors, public defenders and the State's Attorney for Montgomery County John McCarthy. The ability to adapt, a willingness to put in the extra hours and a desire for excellence are some of my best traits.
