My Story
I enlisted in the Marines at 18. I needed structure and purpose. I found both.
Today, I balance the precision of drone flight operations with the creative chaos of building a SaaS from scratch.
Nova isn't just code; it's the bridge that gets me home to my family. Every line is a step closer to being a full-time father.
