Summary
Experienced Sonar Technician specializing in operating and maintaining acoustic threat detection systems and accompanying fire control systems. Served in the U.S. Navy for over five years and teamed with crews to conduct undersea surveillance, navigation, and target location. This position allowed me to coordinate equipment corrective and preventative maintenance on classified equipment.
I cross-trained outside primary training to serve under Command Pay/Personnel Administrator (CPPA). This opportunity to operate under the CPPA command provided training on specific software and systems to complete CPPA duties. The software package called “CPPA Toolbox” provided the interface to carefully review personnel documents and information routed between the PSD or FSC, which supported Sailors to ensure all forms contained the pertaining data, all required documentation and attachments were provided, and all information appeared to be sufficient to resolve the transactions promptly..
