About Michael
I joined the USAF in September 2005 and served until August 2010. While serving in the military I was given the opportunity to deploy/TDY seven times in my 5 years. I deployed in support of OEF, OIF, and HOA. While enlisted I was an Aircraft Mechanic on the U-2. After my Honorable discharge, I was hired on as a civilian contractor to work U-2 phase up until March 2015. I currently work for Cargill AgHorizon in Illinois. I have my bachelor’s degree in computer science with a focus on web design. I am currently working towards my master’s degree in business administration. My passion is leading and mentoring individuals of all ages. I have had many experiences in my life and I feel that I am able to pass on some of that knowledge. If there is one thing that I could let everyone know, it is that "You Can’t Control the Wind, But You Can Adjust Your Sails."
