John Martin

Versatile and diligent, I honed my basic expertise in construction safety and problem-solving through roles at Coastal Masonry, MCR, and Sheepscot Island Company. Demonstrating proficiency in basic carpentry, basic mechanics, and a commitment to excellence, I strive to consistently exceed project expectations, leveraging teamwork and attention to detail to achieve superior results. I am currently in the NROTC unit at Maine Maritime Academy, and I am aspiring and on track to become a Marine Corps officer when I graduate. After my time in the Marine Corps, I am hoping to use the skills I have learned from school and work to have a successful career after the Marine Corps.

• I have played sports since I was in the first grade.
• I have played basketball, football, soccer, wrestling, and lacrosse.
• My senior year in high school, I was a captain on the basketball, soccer, and lacrosse teams.
• I won the coach's award for basketball for leading the team to a playoff appearance, the only playoff appearance in the past five years.
• I am currently on the Maine Maritime Academy men's lacrosse team.
• Throughout my experiences in sports, I have gained great teamwork skills, people skills to help with my professional career, along with leadership skills, and being responsible for more than myself.
• Throughout high school, I always made the honor roll, and in my first almost two years of college, I have always made the dean's list.
• In my first year, I earned a 3-year NROTC scholarship to help pay for school.
• I have earned leadership roles inside the NROTC unit; my first position was a squad leader, which helped me gain accountability skills for more than just myself. The second position I earned is the Command Fitness Leader. I am in charge of the unit's overall fitness. I plan and organize morning workouts for 60 people every week, which has helped me improve my organizational skills.
