Transcript

Being a veteran really means reintegrating with with civilian life, reintegrating with people. Doing that as best you can and then understanding and helping the people around you adapt to that as best they can. In my military career, I've worked in engineering my entire career and it was it allowed me to easily transition over to the office of the county engineering and utilize my skills learned in the military to be an asset to the engineering department. For me working in permits division, I feel like because I am very familiar with. Those regulations I can help the constituents become. In compliance with Harris County rules and regulations to help them understand what it is they need to do to be within those rules and regulation. I think it saved my word just for the simple fact that I'll see something needs to be done. I just do it. Typically in the military, you don't wait around waiting for orders to to be given. You just take charge. Being able to have discipline, follow guidance that I have from superiors, being able to do the right test and do them with the right not good time manner. And doing it properly. So being part of the Army for 20 years has taught me a sense of leadership, guidance, motivation. It's taught me how to live, learn and enforce standards and actually take care of people. Leading by example. Salute to all the veterans still serving, a salute those that we lost.
