Brannon Besse

Oklahoma City

Summary

I am a prior active-duty service member who enlisted immediately after graduating high school. Following my separation from active duty in December 2021, I transitioned to the Oklahoma Army National Guard, where I have served since January 2022. My current contract extends through December 2027.

Throughout my career, I have held various positions across different industries and continue to seek a stable, long-term opportunity that I can grow into a fulfilling career. I am currently pursuing a college degree on a part-time basis through the United States Army, taking classes as my schedule allows.

I am open to a wide range of job opportunities and am particularly interested in roles that offer flexibility to accommodate my National Guard obligations—specifically, one weekend a month and two weeks each summer. I am originally from Oklahoma and remain committed to personal and professional growth.
