• From April 2004 until August 2006, I was the Radio Telephone Operator for a Reconnaissance and Sniper Team and later on an entire Platoon. Details entailed being proficient in Army electronic communication devices, as well as being proficient in long range shooting and counter-sniper measures. I was also granted interim Secret Clearances by the Army to handle highly sensitive encoding/encryption devices.

• I was deployed twice to the Iraqi theater. During those tours I was awarded: three Army Accommodation Medals, two Army Achievement Medals, one Iraqi Campaign Medal (with one Gold Star), the National Defense Medal, the Global War on Terrorism Campaign Medal, and one Purple Heart. I conducted over 100 patrols during a 3 month time span in support of Operation Arrowhead Ripper in Baqubah, Iraq.

• I was promoted to the rank of Sergeant (E-5) during my second tour to Iraq. I was responsible for coordinating and executing missions with international counterparts, as well as internal Special Operations Groups. I have led missions that have helped kill or capture mid to high level terrorist cell leaders in the cities of Kirkuk and Samarra. I have also been in charge of up to eight other Soldiers and their equipment. I was rated at being in charge of over 2.1 million dollars’ worth of equipment.


US Army; Infantry
February 2010 – July 2011
Fort Stewart, GA

• Deployed six months from returning from second deployment with 3rd Infantry Division as a Sergeant (E-5). During my third deployment I was placed as Shift NCO for a Tactical Operations Center (TOC). I was placed in charge of tracking and maintaining all pertinent information for the whole Battalion’s patrol schedule. I was placed over four Soldiers.



Lone Wolf Manufacturing
September 2012 – Present
Spring, TX

• I was originally hired into the company as a Quality Control Trainee. I was responsible for inspecting items that were plasma cut off varying machines to prints, and visual inspections of welds.

• Two weeks after being hired I was promoted to being the Quality Control Coordinator. I was then put over eight other employees to coordinate appropriate shifts and placement of key personnel over projects. I have established many custom devices for the inspection process that the department has adopted. I was also in charge of varying aspects ranging from scheduling personnel, inspecting incoming projects and material, coordinating with third party NDT companies, to understanding customer-specific demands and implementing their needs on a project-to-project basis.


End Statement

I have a very firm grasp of inspections for dimensions and visually with welds, as well as working with drawings. I understand, to great depth, the pressures of working with deadlines and the ability to put out a quality project that meet standards and the customer’s needs. I work very well in team environments, while at the same time appreciate being able to accomplish projects by myself. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
