After retiring from the USAF, I worked as an Instructional Design Manager at Accenture. I left Accenture after 2 years and worked as a Strategic Management Consulting Associate with Booz Allen Hamilton. I left BAH after 2 years when I was recruited to join Dell, Inc., where I worked as an Engagement Manager, leading the development of training for Enterprise Servers. After a year and a half at Dell, I was recruited to join USAA, where I served 6 years as a Senior, and then Lead Talent Programs Advisor within HR.
I retired from USAA in February of 2020, but returned by invitation after 6 months and am now happily teaching USAA's New Employee Orientation part-time (as a contractor).
I am married to the former Cindy Kortz and have two great kids (who are now successful adults!) , Jay and Tommy
