After graduating from Alpena High School in 1978, I joined the United States Air Force. It was in the Air Force that most of my professional values were formed and stuck with me through today. I feel like I was raised on the Air Force core values:-Integrity First: Moral traits, such as courage, honesty, responsibility, accountability, justice, openness, self-respect and humility.-Service Before Self: Behaviors, such as rule following, respect for others, discipline, self-control and faith in the system.-Excellence In All You Do: Performance excellence in areas such as product/service, personal, community, resources and operations."In looking for people to hire, you look for three qualities: integrity, intelligence, and energy. And if they don't have the first, the other two will kill you." - Warren Buffet"Live in such a way that you would not be ashamed to sell your parrot to the town gossip." - Will RogersSpecialties: -Comfortable with public speaking, certified Air Force Instructor-Over 30 years experience dealing with varied aspects of government contracting-Participates as instructor, facilitator and panel member at government contracting events at a regional, state and national level-Superior performance, receiving eight Air Force commendations
