With over 20 years of dedicated military and academic experience, I am currently the Assistant Professor of Military Science at Florida Southern College, where I develop leaders with a strong foundation in critical thinking and leadership skills. My mission aligns with the college's commitment to excellence, and my expertise in military operations and leader development allows me to contribute meaningfully to our Cadets' growth. My role involves not just education but also embodying the values and discipline that define our armed forces, providing a diverse perspective that strengthens our program.In my most recent role as Training Manager (Company Commander) in the US Army, I led a multi-faceted training program that combined Basic Combat Training with advanced individual training. My skills in organizational leadership were instrumental in delivering effective training modules, ensuring both operational readiness and the professional development of our personnel. By managing resources judiciously and fostering a mission-ready force, I have demonstrated my ability to guide teams through complex military engagements while maintaining a focus on strategic goals and organizational values.
