I am proud to have served in the United States Air Force for 14 years as an Air Transportation Specialist. Throughout my military career, I have been deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq, gaining invaluable experience in coordinating and executing logistics operations in challenging environments to support critical military missions. I have also completed two overseas tours, including a year-long assignment in Turkey and a tour of four years in Okinawa, Japan, where I contributed to the movement of personnel and cargo to support U.S. military operations in the Pacific region.

As a current Air Force Recruiter in the Laredo, Texas area, I am honored to represent the U.S. Air Force and share my firsthand experiences with potential recruits. I am passionate about helping individuals understand the opportunities and benefits of serving in the Air Force and guiding them through the enlistment process. Drawing on my military experience, I bring valuable skills such as leadership, teamwork, and attention to detail to my role as a recruiter.

I take great pride in my service to my country and continue to contribute to the Air Force's mission by identifying and selecting qualified candidates to join our elite team of professionals. I am dedicated to helping individuals achieve their goals and pursue a successful career in the U.S. Air Force. It is a privilege to serve as an Air Force Recruiter and make a positive impact in the lives of those who choose to serve our nation.

*Each recruiter may run their process a little bit differently depending on the area they are assigned to*

Step 1: I will pre-screen you over the phone to check for any red flags that are disqualifying for Air Force service such as serious medical issues/law violations/drug use/etc. If you are pre-qualified, I will set up an initial appointment after a qualifying score on the AFQT Predictor Test (APT) . 

Step 2: At your initial appointment you must come prepared with your original copies of your social security card, birth certificate, high school diploma, college transcripts (if applicable), and a State issued DL (State issue ID , U.S. Passport, etc.).  I will go over any questions you have, to ensure you’re ready to join. I will build you a profile in our system and we will review all necessary paperwork. I will provide you a link to the online application (AFCEP) and a link to take a Pending Internet Computerized Adaptive Test  (PiCAT).

*Air Force needs are currently mechanical aptitude jobs, electronics aptitude jobs, security forces, and special warfare positions.*

Step 3: Once your application (AFCEP) is complete we will review your application, and I will provide you with the PiCAT score. With an qualifying PiCAT score we can proceed with the next steps.

 Step 4: Submit a scheduling request to military entrance processing station (MEPS) for your medical physical exam. The physical exam is not a PT test. The physical exam will be checking qualifying factors such as vision, hearing, blood tests, drug tests, etc

*If necessary schedule the ASVAB*

Step 5: Once scheduled for MEPS you will go down and complete your testing on the first day (TAPAS, ASVAB, DLAB etc.) . You’ll spend the night at a hotel free of charge and do your physical the next day. Once the testing and physical is complete you will know what jobs you are qualified for based on your academic and physical results. You will complete the oath of enlistment, swear into the Air Force, and join the Delayed Entry Program (DEP).

Step 6: The Delayed Entry Program (DEP) is everyone who is qualified and waiting to book a job or has booked a job and is waiting to ship. We will complete your DEP briefing and give you some time to review the jobs you are qualified for so you can make an educated decision.  You will make  a list of 10-20 specific jobs that you would like. 

Step 7: Leave for Basic Military Training (BMT) and start your Air Force Career.
