As a Physician Assistant for the Defense Health Agency (DHA), I have over seven months of experience in delivering primary care for Navy and Marine personnel across diverse settings. I have a Master of Science degree in Physician Assistant studies, and I have honed my skills in surgical assistance, leadership, adaptability, communication, and continuous learning. I oversee healthcare staff, participate in medical research, and act as a liaison between medical and non-medical personnel. I am also frequently deployed for mission-critical medical support, where I demonstrate my commitment and resilience.Prior to joining DHA, I served with elite Special Operations Forces (SOF) units for 20 years as a Hospital Corpsman. I provided comprehensive and ensured healthcare support in high-stress missions and environments, developed and managed health programs and medical logistics, and trained partnered forces. As Master Chief Petty Officer, I led personnel and strengthened foreign internal defense capabilities and international relations. I am proud of my service and the accomplishments I achieved, such as exceptional mission support, rank advancement, and project execution.
