After ten years of service as a US Navy Fighter Pilot and Naval Officer, I have decided to hang up my flight gear and pursue a career as a civilian. My professional passion is designing processes using high-tech tools to enable repeatable success. I am naturally inclined to math and science and am a competent computer programmer in Python, Swift, and JavaScript. Additionally, through my MBA studies at The College of William and Mary, I have discovered my strengths include financial analysis/modeling and data analysis using machine learning. As such, I have chosen a career as a Financial Professional with First Financial Group, helping people identify the optimal way to achieve financial freedom. I have experience in dynamic and fast-paced environments and possess a comprehensive background in complex problem solving, high tech applications, and motivating people. I pride myself on my ability to find solutions where none exist. I am always learning and pushing myself to improve. My Navy journey has taken me all over the world and put me in situations I have never thought possible. I have had the great opportunity to fly high-performance aircraft and lead teams into uncertain situations on foreign shores. My experiences have taught me to make timely and effective decisions with vague and evolving information. I thrive on adventure and am comfortable in high-stress environments. I possess a bachelor’s degree in aerospace engineering from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, and an MBA from The College of William and Mary, Raymond A. Mason school of business.
