About Jon C. Rhodes

I am a steady, conscientious team player pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering at the University of South Florida. My expected graduation date is August 2025. After graduation, I am seeking full-time employment in Aviation Civil Engineering. I'm excited to use my operational planning and problem-solving skills in this opportunity! With over twelve years of experience in the United States Marine Corps as a KC-130 Instructor Pilot, Aviation Safety Officer, Logistics Officer, and Assistant Operations Officer, I have developed significant expertise in operations management, risk assessment, and strategic planning—skills that are highly applicable in the engineering sector. Furthermore, my experience as a skydiving coach and video photographer has enhanced my customer service capabilities and reinforced my attention to detail, safety, and technical proficiency. In these roles, I effectively guided clients through training and safety protocols while delivering high-quality video production. My logistics, project coordination, and leadership background positions me well to address challenges in design, infrastructure, systems optimization, and team collaboration. I am eager to connect and explore opportunities within the engineering field.
