PRESENT: I am a Real Estate Agent in South West Florida and I also serve in the College of Education as a University Supervisor and Mentor for students at Florida Gulf Coast University. I love helping and serving people in our local community.   PAST: Served in the United States Air Force for over twenty-eight years, first as an airman, then as an officer. I also served as an civilian instructor at the United States Air Force Academy (USAFA), in Colorado Springs, Colorado. While serving at the USAFA, authored two  textbooks about how to achieve  academic success and earned a Doctorate of Higher Education in 1998 from Nova Southeastern University.   I also wrote two interactive mentoring textbooks.
