Hey everyone, it is so great to hear from so many of you and to see how many are married and have started a family. I joined the Air Force shortly after high school in hopes of getting my life going in the right direction. Fortunately the military has provided me with some of the greatest years of my life. I was fortunate enough to be stationed in Charleston South Carolina and got a terrific job as a C17 Crew Chief. The C17 is pictured below and I figured the aircraft I choose was fitting. My job has taken me around the world three times and to just about every country on the globe. I also met my wife Misty right here in Charleston and we have been married for almost five years. She graduated from the College of Charleston in 2003 and is currently working towards a degree in nursing. I am only a few classes away from my Bachelors in Professional Aeronautics through Embry Riddle and once I complete that degree I will jump right into a masters program. I cannot wait to see everyone in August.
