Summary
As a Combat Controller, I became incredibly proficient at adapting to any situation that I was put in. My job was to accomplish any goal asked of me, no matter what I had to work against to complete said goal. I am highly motivated to put in 100 percent effort in anything I do, and understand how to put the needs of my organization before my own.
