Navy Career and Scholarship Sharing

Is it crazy to join the Navy, or crazier to leave your home undefended?

Did you know that in the Navy, we combine work, travel, and play? There are opportinities to travel, and exercise diplomacy too (just like a typical digital nomad – but with a higher purpose!)

But wait, there’s more! Life onboard’s not all that long – we spend more time ashore than at sea (like a 9-5 job with seafaring opportunities~)

Want to know more about how we do all that and more? Join CPT Greyton at our Navy sharing session, where he’ll share with you more and spill some tea about a Navy career!

Speaker: CPT Greyton Mak
