17th Training Wing Public Affairs: What led you to join the military?

I joined the military for multiple different reasons, but the main reasons were to follow in my dad's footsteps, to serve my country and the people, and to better myself physically and mentally.

What has been the most impactful moment in your career so far?

I haven't been in too long so I don't have much, but I remember getting my name tape sewn onto my uniform being a big moment for me and then seeing my parents at my basic military training graduation.

What are your hobbies?

I love the outdoors, hunting, fishing, hiking, video games and hanging out with friends.

What do you want to accomplish during your time here at Goodfellow Air Force Base?

Simply do the best I can, graduate, and then take what I learned here and do the best I can at my first duty station.

Is there any advice or anything extra you would like to share?

Hard work speaks for itself and will get you noticed by your peers and superiors.
