My diverse background has provided me with valuable skills and experiences essential for this role. After high school, I enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, where I served primarily as a Military Police officer and a member of a Special Reaction Team. As a Platoon Sergeant, I developed my leadership abilities, instruction skills, and critical decision-making under pressure, fostering a deep commitment to discipline and teamwork.Following my military service, I transitioned to a role as a Flexographic Press Operator, where I honed my mechanical skills, attention to detail, and problem-solving abilities.

These experiences have shaped my dedication to public service and justice, driving me to pursue a career in a federal agency as a special agent.
