United States Marine Corps
I was once named Sergeant Hamerlinck, and was responsible for the health, welfare, and training of 22 subordinate Marines. I earned the privilege of learning a secondary occupation, Primary Marksmanship Instructor, in addition to my duties as a Field Radio Operator in the Artillery. The hardest lesson learned was to become a leader and supervisor of Marines who were my peers the day before, as few are promoted to the rank of Sergeant.
- Awarded Meritorious Mast for leading Marine squad at Marine Combat Training Battalion, Camp Pendleton, CA.
- Received Meritorious Mast for leading a class of Marines, and graduating at the head of the class at Marine Corps Communications Electronics School, Twentynine Palms, CA.
- Awarded Battery C's Marine of the Year, 2001.
Angry Cedar Brewing Co.
I once built a microbrewery with a dollar and a dream. What an adventure.
I loved the creation, the engineering, the science, the visitors, the BEER!! (The 90 hour weeks, the expenses, the overhead!!)
If I were to name the biggest factor why I didn't make it, I would say that I should have opened a pub on Main Street. I shouldn't have reached for statewide distribution. I don't regret the decision... my wife and I didn't want to work the late hours of a tasting room. But because of that we employed a disadvantaged business plan.
I took it pretty hard when we decided to sell it before it got ugly, but I find comfort in the wealth of experience I learned along the way. You can't get that kind of knowledge at a school. Hard learned lessons are lessons learned. And it cost me about as much as a Master's would have. Money well spent in my opinion.
- Planned, assembled, and financed a local microbrewery.
- Achieved cash flow.
- Hired and trained a staff of two to manage daily operations.
