After UCSD, I moved to Pensacola, FL for Navy
pilot training. I spent the next 2.5 years
in Florida and Mississippi, and earned my wings in
1999. Then headed west to Lemoore, CA, (Near Fresno)
where I was stationed until May of 2003. I made 2
deployments onboard USS Abraham Lincoln in Strike
Fighter Squadron 113 flying F-18s. The second
deployment was 10 months long and included missions
over Afghanistan and Iraq in Operation Iraqi
Freedom. After returning from OIF, I moved to my
current home in Fallon, NV and am currently an
instructor at TOPGUN.
