Summary

Extremely motivated, hardworking, team oriented. After completing 4 years of Navy Junior ROTC at Freedom High school, I attended Norwich University (NU) - the nation's oldest private military college and still one of the 6 senior military colleges in the United States. Achieved starting position as a true freshman on Norwich's baseball team where I was also considered for a captain role. Achieved corporal status in the NU Corps of Cadets as a sophomore. Through lifeguarding and teaching swim lessons, I have experience in first aid, CPR, and effective communication skills with members of the public.
