About Richard

US Army Controlled Positions Specialist for NRAS Program, West Germany 1973-1979.
Steamfitters Local 638 NYC, Journeyman Steamfitter 1980-2008- ret.
Enrolled at Phoenix College pursuing an AAs in Construction Management, Phi Theta Kappa 40+ hrs. completed with a GPA of 3.929
Worked at (Volunteered) Central Arizona Shelter Services helping the homeless find gainful employment in order to secure housing and life skills to keep them off the streets and productive members of society. Sought out homeless veterans and worked with them on site and in the community, focusing on securing benefits and jobs for them. Our veterans have earned the services available for them and it is my mission to make sure they get them. Too many are falling through the cracks, I want to be the plaster that fills those cracks so our veterans get all the help they need to succeed.
