Additional Information

When returning to the states I was no longer the lowest ranking person, in fact I had made sergeant in record time, under 18 months. Nearly all of my jobs required me to be in a leadership position, whether it was the military or professional sports, I can provide names of highly respected professionals that’s would recommend me for any job.
