Summary

I have served in the US Air Force for 10 years. I have filled many roles in this time, to include working on the floor as an Airman performing structural repairs, removing corrosion from aircraft, painting, fabricating aircraft tubing, and decals. I have been a Staff Sergeant (SSgt) for 5 years and after being promoted, I was assigned more of an Admin/supervisor roll. A few of these duties included paint shop shift lead, Wash Facility NCOIC, Fabrication Flight Support Section NCOIC. I excelled in all of these rolls as a SSgt and look forward to using these skills in the private sector.
