Why I joined: For educational benefits and to travel, but mainly I wanted to feel like I had a purpose and decided to get that feeling by serving my country.

Favorite aspect of job: Helping the members of my unit ensure their travels are being reimbursed and they receive the items they need to make the mission happen.

Hobbies: Baking, taking pictures and exploring the local area with my daughter.

Role Model: Lt. Linda McCullough. She is prior enlisted and strived to achieve her goals for her commission. She's an amazing mother and is strong in her beliefs.
