Work History

Special Forces Operations Sergeant

7th Special Forces Group
Eglin Air Force Base, FL
08.2002 - Current
  • I served as the Operations Sergeant and Chief Instructor for the Lethal Skills Detachment's (LSD), Special Forces Advanced Urban Combat Course (SFAUCC) in the Advanced Skills Company. I supervised, planned, and instructed Special Operations Forces to engaged in combating terrorism and counter-narcotic operations in various parts of the world. Prior to becoming the Chief Instructor, I served as the Senior Instructor for two SFAUC courses that met the training needs of 170 Special Forces soldiers from two Special Forces Companies while integrating and managing over 20 non-Special Operation Force personnel into theses SFAUC events. As part of my role as the Senior Instructor, I coordinated air assets and training venues with various Joint Special Operations Units, enhancing the unit's training realism.
  • Prior to becoming an Instructor, I served as a Special Forces Company Operations Sergeant. I advised the Special Forces Commander and Sergeant Major on all operations, training and personnel management matters. I assisted in the coordination and allocations of training resources. I have conducted operations in support of the current theater objectives with combat operations and intelligence gathering. During my time as the SF Company Operations Sergeant I staffed 13 Joint Combine Exchange Training (JCET) and six Language Emersion Training (LET) that allowed multiple Special Forces Operation Detachment-Alpha (SFODA) to travel to countries located in Central and South America.
  • Foregoing the process to become a Special Forces Non-Commission Officer, I served in the 82nd Airborne Division as a Senior Forward Observer Sergeant with additional duties as the Headquarters Platoon Sergeant that managed 42 personnel from five different sections.
