With a professional career commencing at the young age of 18, I established myself as a skilled Farrier, expertly managing a successful horseshoeing business for over 15 years. My entrepreneurial spirit was further demonstrated through the effective stewardship of my family’s Hay Business, encompassing both farming and sales. My expertise extends to mentoring aspiring entrepreneurs in client management, strategic advertising, and astute budget planning. Although I continue to offer horse hoof trimming services part-time, my passion for public service led me to pursue a BA in Criminal Justice. This marked the beginning of my journey as a dedicated First Responder, a personal aspiration that demanded a new level of challenge and self-improvement. Joining a County Jail in California, I rapidly adapted to the demanding environment, honing new skills on the job and excelling in a CORE Academy. Here, I pushed my mental and physical limits beyond what I thought possible. Now a senior Correctional Officer, I receive frequent promotional opportunities, a testament to my commitment and growth in this role. I am eager to share my experiences and insights to help others achieve their entrepreneurial dreams or fulfill their desire to serve the community as a First Responder. Whether it’s about pursuing a path of public service or embarking on a journey of entrepreneurship, I believe in the power of challenging oneself at any stage of life. Outside my professional endeavors, I delve into the realms of AI and stock investments, constantly exploring new frontiers. My journey is a testament to the belief that one’s quest for growth and challenge never ceases.
