Upon completion of his basic and specialized training in San Diego and Mississippi, he was commissioned as a seaman on the USS Stein where he completed several West Pac & World Tours during the Gulf War. During this time he married his high school sweetheart in 1988 then made San Diego their residence.

After his military career, he took various management positions with companies such as 84 Lumber, Contractor’s Warehouse, Norris Plumbing Fixtures, Big 5 and Del Taco.
