B.S. Criminal Justice

I was deployed 4 times while trying to achieve a degree. As challenging as that was, I still pushed through. Because of CSU’s and their understanding, it allowed me to serve and study at the same time. I didn’t have to choose one or the other.

M.B.A. Marketing

While in service, I started my associate degree at CSU, and it really set me up for success on the outside and assisted in my promotion to the rank of staff sergeant in the United States Army.
