Semper Paratus "Always Ready"

I enlisted in the United States Coast Guard on July 9th, 2001, and proudly dedicated two decades of honorable service to my country, concluding my service on July 31st, 2021. Motivated by the Coast Guard's humanitarian mission set, I embarked on this journey with a deep commitment to saving lives and serving my country. Throughout my tenure, I had the privilege of earning several commendations and served with dedication at various units, a testament to my dedication to the Coast Guard's vital missions.
