Hello and welcome to Omega Kappa Lambda.

It is truly an honor to serve those who have served or are still serving, along with their families and communities. My passion for service began at the age of 18 when I became a police officer on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico. In that role, I not only fought crime but also reached out to those in need, solidifying my commitment to helping others. After eight years of dedication, I enlisted in the United States Navy, one of the greatest military forces in the world.

I proudly served for five years on active duty, with multiple deployments aboard the USS Peleliu. Once my active-duty contract concluded, I embarked on a new path as a DOD police officer at Camp Pendleton in Oceanside, California. Although my time there was brief, it allowed me to continue supporting my military community, which I cherish deeply. Subsequently, I joined the Department of Justice as a correctional officer with the Bureau of Prisons. It's been an incredible eight years and counting.

As a Navy reservist for 15 years, I have completed two deployments, one to Bahrain and another to Africa. As one of the founders of Omega Kappa Lambda, I can wholeheartedly say that we are driven by a profound passion for community service and assisting those in need. Our organization addresses critical issues such as suicide awareness, support for homeless veterans, and conducting blood drives—challenges that deeply impact our community. I encourage you and all military brothers and sisters to join us on this meaningful journey.
