No direct military experience, but I have extensive hunting experience including with large game that has involved hiking for hours in very difficult terrain carrying heavy equipment. I myself have owned multiple firearms for many years and am very comfortable using all sorts of firearms, and I am very comfortable being around loud noises from explosives. I am very athletic and have competed in many triathlons and open water swim races in the ocean including cold water exposure. I can carry very heavy loads on my back for long distances. I am not at all squeamish around blood or injuries and have a genuine drive to assist any injured person I see around me. Most importantly I have been very committed to this cause for years, having donated money to the war effort myself as well as from friends and family because of how passionate I have felt for the cause. I am at a point in my life where I am now dedicated to making the ultimate commitment of providing my personal services to supporting the war effort on behalf of Ukraine.
