WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO SERVE AND WHAT MOTIVATED YOU TO JOIN THE ARMY?
To serve our country is to make personal sacrifices to maintain peace and freedom. I joined the Army to be a part something bigger than myself. To push myself mentally and physically, creating the best version of me.
HOW DID YOU PREPARE FOR THE BEST SQUAD COMPETITION AND WHAT IS YOUR REASONING FOR COMPETING?
To prepare for the competition, I would strength train five days a week, ruck twice a week, and aerobics three times a week. In addition, each day the squad would practice our Soldier task and drills outlined in Expert Soldier Badge TRADOC Pamphlet.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO COMPETE IN THE ARMY BEST SQUAD COMPETITION? WHAT DID YOU ENJOY THE MOST AND WHY?
It is important to compete to hone your warrior task and skills, to be able to showcase that regardless of my MOS – I am first and foremost a Soldier. I enjoyed the camaraderie, not only just between my squad, but the other competitors as well.
WHAT ARE YOUR FUTURE GOALS?
I want to become a Sergeant to help prepare and motivate the future generation of Soldiers as my Non-Commissioned Officers have done for me. I also want to become an Exploitation Analyst to further my expertise in cyber.
