What does the Marine Corps League mean to you? I enjoy hanging out with Marines because we understand each other and it allows me to support veteran rights and benefits.
One idea or long-term vision you have for a detachment, department, or national level: I envision establishing a National Technology Operations Center aimed at formulating a comprehensive plan for all departments and detachments to adopt. This initiative would set standards for technology, organizational digital networks & workflows, communication, collaboration, social media, websites, and digital marketing practices nationwide. By doing so, we can elevate public relations efforts, bolster recruitment strategies, and enable each detachment to optimize their use of internet technology securely and efficiently.
