As an 82nd Airborne paratrooper I coordinated jumps, specialized in warehouse logistics and operated semi trucks with a military CDL license. Throughout my travels I had the honor of earning an international driver's license which gave me the opportunity to drive in Italy, Germany, Korea and on the other side of the road in both England and St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Subsequently I moved to Nebraska for college where I met my wife and started our family. We've since settled in Lincoln, Nebraska where I've focused on Warehouse Management and Class A - CDL driving. Living in several different countries, I was exposed to various languages and cultures which has given me a broad appreciation for helping those relocating to the states.
