I have to agree with cipher. In all honesty and with no offense intended, your backstory is really weak and frankly overdone if you ask the reviewers. Read this for some tips.

Having your guy self train for whatever reason is fine however, but it would make more logical sense to go to Signal. Heck, you could even work into his backstory that seeing Teams RWBY, JNPR, CFVY, and everyone else in action is what inspired him to get into the huntsman's life.
