17th Training Wing Public Affairs: What led you to join the military?
I always wanted to join, plus my brothers-in-law are currently serving in the Air Force. My father-in-law is retired Air Force.

What has been the most impactful moment in your career so far?
Working with the special instruments instructors. They’ve done a lot to help the students, getting us the information needed to progress.

What are your hobbies?
Working out, playing on the computer and talking to my wife and kids back home.

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