I am currently a service member of the US Navy as an Engineman second class petty officer. As the leading petty officer in the engine shop onboard USS Kearsarge, I was in charge of mentoring and guiding 36 sailors to ensure they succeed personally and professionally. As 1 of 3 certified diesel technicians on board, I oversaw all maintenance, troubleshooting, diagnostics, running logs, and safety. With my 4 years in the US Navy, I am exceptional at troubleshooting and diagnosing issues on the first time, reading and interpreting technical drawings/manuals, conducting new installations, replacements, and modifications, repair or overhaul of diesel engines and compressors. Other experience I have gained from the US Navy is repairing and replacing damaged mechanical equipment such as fuel pumps, oil pumps, governors, pistons, piston rings, turbos, fuel injectors, valve train assemblies and much more.
