Background Investigator – Federal

Fort Cavazos, Texas, United States

About

I am a Credentialed Background Investigator-Federal, serving the United States by protecting access to classified information, by investigating existing and prospect employees for the United States Military and Civilian sectors. I am a 20 year veteran of the United States Army. My assigned duties included advising the most senior leadership of the countries of Iraq, Afghanistan, and the United Arab Emirates on management of their Soldiers, as well as proper allocation of their resources. Aside from my three years as an instructor for the Army’s academy of the Field Artillery, my most rewarding time was spent as a recruiter in Tucson Arizona. I joined the Army to help people, and I saw that during my five deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, but no more than my three years as a recruiter for the Army. I wanted to carry on that name to help people and began employment as a contract investigator to protect the nations secrets. I am looking to continue helping people in my civilian career. I am open to many positions that would fulfill my goals.
