Profile GeneratorAfter high school, I joined the Navy, qualified as a Search and Rescue Swimmer and Helicopter Aircrewman, and got sent to Japan for my first tour. I made a couple of deployments to the Persian Gulf while I was there. After that I returned to San Diego where I met my future wife, Dionna. A year later in April of 2001, we married. She was also in the Navy and deployed a few months after our wedding and was gone for over 7 months. Shortly after her return, I deployed to Iraq for 7 months for the second Gulf War. I made one more deployment where I helped rescue survivors in Indonesia following the wake of a 90 foot tsunami. I was selected to Chief Petty Officer in 2005, and over 14 years have passed since I first enlisted. I have been to over 30 countries around the globe and met thousands of people. I'm pleased to report I just became a Dad! My son, Brenden was born February 15th. He's AWESOME!
