During my time with the United States Marine Corps I have spent half of it on active duty and the other half in the reserves. My most recent time on active duty was serving in Manpower and Reserve Affairs advising the Director of Reserve Affairs on Policy, Plans and Manpower for the Marine Corps Reserve. Concurrently serving as the monitor for the reserve Senior Enlisted Advisors. Trying to find the right person for the right position. I also maintained my career as FireFighter in Washington, DC assigned to Rescue 1 responding to structure fires, motor vehicle accidents, confined space rescue, trench rescue, swift water rescue, high angle rescue and Hazardous Materials Incidents.
