For the past 11 years I have been a Unmanned Aerial Maintainer on both the RQ-7B shadow UAV and MQ-1C Gray eagle UAV for the US Army. During my time in the Army I was fortunate of have many opportunities develop my skills in the aviation field. I have deployed with both systems around the world, setting new sites from the ground up in the field or on active airfields. I am a Technical Inspector and have been in multiple Quality Assurance/Control departments. I have managed, trained and coached over 100 soldiers in proper maintenance practices, Foreign Object Debris (FOD) prevention and laser safety. I am currently seeking my Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) license and would continue work in the aviation field as a Aircraft Mechanic on private planes.
