I graduated Summa Cum Laude at Bishop Montgomery High School in 2020, and spent my four years of high school also serving in the Naval Sea Cadet Corps, a naval youth program designed to introduce teenagers to the customs, courtesies, state of mind, and opportunities of the US Navy and Marine Corps. I achieved the rank of Petty Officer 1st Class and the billet of Leading Petty Officer due to my demonstrated competency and ability to lead others to become competent in the ways of the US Navy and Marine Corps, by instilling in them the discipline, work ethic, physical fitness, confidence, courage, and patriotism that was instilled in me by my leadership. Currently, I am working on becoming a Master Automotive Technician, starting by earning technical degrees through Long Beach City College's Automotive program. I am also co-enrolled at Texas A&M, where I have been taking various online classes to work towards a Communications degree as well.
