Reflecting on his path, Mr. Winters was inspired to join the military after spending some time in college, seeking a new direction and finding the military to be an appealing option. He attributes his success to the positive influence of several role models he encountered throughout his early career, even before joining the army. His journey began as a pantry chef at a restaurant before enlisting at the age of 18. He emphasizes the importance of self-motivation and the desire to improve his circumstances for himself and his family. His goal has always been to provide a stable environment for his children, allowing them to focus on their education without worrying about basic needs. Looking to the future, he is currently working towards obtaining his Practitioner Certification with the Defense Acquisition University by the end of the year. This certification is crucial for his role in government contracting and complements his existing Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, which is recognized in the civilian sector. Following this, he plans to pursue the military PMP certification. He is committed to his career in the government sector and aims to reach the Senior Executive Service level, equivalent to the rank of a one-star general in the military hierarchy.
