His combat deployments include leading the first Rifle Company of Marines into Baghdad, Iraq during the MARCH UP, then into Tikrit, Iraq as part of Task Force Tripoli, in order to end the conventional war fighting portion of the war in the spring of 2003.
On a follow-on deployment, he led a Civil Affairs Team in support of Operation VIGILANT RESOLVE in Fallujah, Iraq in 2004. In 2007 as part of Multi-National Forces-Iraq, as the Deputy for a Joint Intelligence Transition Team, he helped stand up the Iraq version of the FBI.
From 2009 – 2011 he was the Commanding Officer for 3rd Battalion, 25th Marines, which secured Area of Operation Belleau Wood, in Helmand Province, Afghanistan.
In 2012 he was the Governance Officer for I Marine Expeditionary Force in Helmand Province, Afghanistan.
In 2014, he was the J5 Lead Planner for Central Command – Forward in Amman, Jordan, ensuring the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) Offensive did not cross the border.
