Hometown?

Hazard, Kentucky


Why do you serve?

I wanted to be a part of something a lot bigger than myself. I wanted to travel the world, meet new people, and experience things I would have never experienced without joining. I wanted to serve and make a difference.


How does your job impact the wing’s mission?

Everyday security forces are doing whatever it takes to protect the base and its people. They are putting their lives on the line.


What's your dream assignment and why?

I would love to go to Okinawa, Japan. I always hear the locals are nice and I would love to experience the culture and scenery.
