Time at Laughlin: Since April 2008

Greatest accomplishment: I feel that I have yet to complete my greatest accomplishment. However, the military has been good to me and I am grateful for the growth I have experienced through it. (That is not a height joke)

Hobbies: Film, art, photography, performing music and self improvement
Bad habit: I tend to get in my own way

Favorite movies: I am a huge film fan! I usually favor indie and foreign cinema the most. I'll have to choose "Amélie" and "Psycho" by Alfred Hitchcock. They changed my life.

If you could spend one hour with any person, who would it be and why: Audrey Hepburn. She is known primarily as an actress and fashion icon, but what I really admire about her was her passion for humanity and kindness. If there is anyone I strive to be like, it is her. I have learned so much about the human condition through her interviews. I truly believe if she was in a position of power she could have changed the world in tremendous ways.
