I am not a hero, I’m just getting started

“I will never forget the afternoon of September 21st , 2015 when I received a phone call from the President of the United States informing me that I would be receiving the Medal of Honor. I didn’t understand what this call truly meant. All I knew was that my life had changed forever.”

I’m not disconnected, I help connect more than a billion people

“For both tours of duty, it was critical that I connected with the people with whom I served. I recognized I did not have all the answers; however, these connections would help guide me towards the right solutions. Now instead of just connecting with those around me, I also help connect nearly 1.7 billion people around the world.”

I’m not different, I’m making a difference

“Just one month into the job, one coworker seemed to have convinced himself that if pressured, I might have a ‘moment’ or feel the need to ‘blow up.’I recognized that I had a responsibility to myself and to all veterans to challenge these misconceptions.”

I’m not broken, unlike this code I’m fixing

“Understand that if a company tells you that you’re not a good fit because of your service, it really means that they’re not a good fit for you. You’re not the problem. Hold out for the job that fits you. And keep in mind the best fit might be the job you create for yourself.”

I’m not unemployed, but I am hiring

“The problem was, potential employers knew what people at my level get paid in the Navy. They thought I would consider myself lucky just to get a job. I’m not ‘lucky’ to have a job. My business is growing. There’s no greater feeling in the world than being able to help others provide for their families.”
