Adam Bigalk

I was born in Seoul, South Korea. I was adopted when I was three months old. I was raised on a farm outside of Harmony, Minnesota. After graduating from Fillmore Central High School I joined the United States Navy. I attended Naval Nuclear Power School in Charleston, SC. I then attended Engineering Laboratory Technician school in Ballston Spa, NY. I was then stationed on the USS Alaska SSBN 732 in Bangor, WA. I then moved to Portsmouth, VA to conduct a nuclear refueling project. After my Naval service I moved back to Minnesota and attended college. I graduated from Minnesota State University Mankato with a B.S. in Biology. I joined the Veterans Fire Corps to gain valuable work experience with the US Forest Service. I hope to get a full-time position with the Forest Service when finished.
