My role as a Navigator
Springfield has always been home. After serving in the Military (USMC) for 6 years, I returned home in 1987 and have been here ever since.
I have been serving returning Citizens, Underserved in Job and Career Training for 14 years.
I am a servant at heart, so I love to see those that are not expected to succeed, do so. I have compassion and empathy for those I serve.
My background and working with 6 Institutions doing Pre and Post- Release mentoring and training has allowed me to work in positions that connect me to the Community. Coaching, Ministry, leading a very successful Recreation Program in Lincoln Park Circle, a successful High School Basketball career and serving in the USMC are great accomplishments that help connect with clients.
When I am not helping clients, I write poetry and songs, go to movies, concert and travel.
