Experience

1. Staff Sergeant (12n), Horizontal Construction Engineer

   Rhode Island Army National Guard

   Sep 2012 — Present · Providence, RI, US

   I serve in a dual capacity: builder of infrastructure and builder of teams. As a Staff Sergeant in the Army National Guard, I lead with clarity, operate with discipline, and bring structure to uncertainty. I’ve spent over a decade shaping not just physical environments, but organizational outcomes—mentoring soldiers, enforcing standards, and ensuring mission execution under pressure.What sets me apart isn’t just my technical background—it’s my ability to assess, decide, and act with intent. I thrive in ambiguity. I don’t just follow orders; I shape environments so others can execute effectively within them. Whether it’s training troops on complex weapon systems, planning scenario-based operations, or managing large-scale equipment inventories, my focus remains consistent: clarity, continuity, and control.Core Competencies:Leadership Under Pressure: Trusted to lead squads and platoons when formal leadership is absent. I model military bearing, accountability, and decisiveness—especially when stakes are high.Instructional Design & Delivery: I create and deliver training that’s relevant, tactical, and retention-focused. I understand how people learn, and I build them into assets.Operational Precision: Known for zero-failure execution on compliance, readiness, and logistical accountability. Whether leading BII inventories or acting as UPL/QA, I bring rigor to every task.Retention & Development: I don’t just mentor—I retain. Soldiers stay, grow, and lead because I invest early and often in their success.This role continues to refine how I lead in complex environments, align people to mission, and build systems that perform—skills I carry into every endeavor, whether military, business, or consulting.
