Over the years, Mr. Escamilla gained valuable meteorological expertise as a policy officer for the U.S. Army and as chief of the Weather Division for the Department of Defense (DoD), through which he maintained strategic support for key stakeholders, including the Secretary of Defense, Congressional delegates, and the White House. Through the DoD, he managed over 10,000 weather-related product projects a year and oversaw briefings for the Secretary of the Air Force and the Chief of Staff of the Army. During the early stages of his career, then Major Escamilla also honed his skills in logistics management, communications, strategy, and more in various roles with the United States Air Force's Weather Division.
An expert in his field, Mr. Escamilla earned an Associate of Science in atmospheric sciences and meteorology from the Community College of the Air Force in 1993. Subsequently, he received a Bachelor of Applied Science and a master's degree in aeronautics, aviation, aerospace science, and technology from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, a master's degree in professional military studies from Air University, and a master's degree in strategic intelligence from the National Intelligence University.

For his outstanding achievements, he has been honored with a Meritorious Service Medal, the Military Outstanding Volunteer Service Medal, Humanitarian Service Medals, the Joint Service Commendation Medal, several Air Force Commendation Medals, and an Army Commendation Medal.
While his career has been filled with standout moments, Mr. Escamilla takes the most pride in raising two exceptional daughters and becoming a grandfather to three beautiful grandchildren. Professionally, he is proud of recognizing the potential constraints that arise from climate change considerations, being recognized by the Order of the Spurs through the First Cavalry Division of the Army, and earning a token of appreciation from retired four-star General John McConville, the 40th chief of staff of the Army, for the support he provided as an Air Force Staff Weather Officer during the Iraqi campaign in 2003. Central to his outstanding accomplishments is the pivotal role played by his wife, Marivette, who has been his guiding light, constantly encouraging him to see and achieve beyond the boundaries of his self-perception.
