"
The reason why I decided to come to the Bush School is because I wasn’t done serving my country, and after 24 years with the Air Force, I knew I wanted to continue that service in another capacity. I loved College Station and I’ve always had the desire to attend Texas A&M. I actually went to the military admissions office and spoke to a counselor there, and they recommended me for the Bush School. I love everything that the school stands for – all of its values."
