I joined the US Army at 20 years of age. My job title was a wheeled truck driver and mechanic. I went to college and received my EMT certification while serving as well as the NCO academy. When I separated, I went into retail management with Family Dollar and then into the medical field as a Psych Tech at a VA Psychiatric Hospital in Battle Creek, Mi. From there on I worked as a CNA for 20 years. I became disabled in 2013 and have been on disability since.
