Summary
I've wanted to serve since I was a kid, and though my time in the military was cut short due to medical reasons, that dream never left me. I see the opportunity with the U.S. Border Patrol as a second chance to fulfill my purpose, and I'm ready to give it everything I've got. With a background in federal service, a strong work ethic, and a mindset built on discipline and growth, I'm far from a quitter. I'm a dedicated student of life who's ready to step up and serve our great country with pride.
