      As an OM, I was responsible for overseeing the deployment of command and control centers. I managed teams of up to 50 individuals in this role. I implemented a system that reduced the time it took to build a control center. The system was adopted as company policy, and I was awarded the prestigious Navy Achievement Medal for my contribution. I enlisted as an Infantryman in the Marine Corps immediately upon graduating high school. I completed three overseas deployments and attained the rank of Sergeant.
