  1. What led you to join the military? I wanted to be a part of something bigger than myself. I was also interested in the benefits they had like the education, healthcare and travel opportunity.
     
  2. What has been the most impactful moment in your career so far? The most impactful moment I had in my career was when I got my Airman’s coin. That was very impactful because Basic Military Training was very intense and stressful. Receiving my coin brought me joy because I didn’t think I was going to make it.
     
  3. What are your hobbies? There are a lot of things I enjoy doing, but I really enjoy styling hair and hanging out with my wingmen.
     
  4. What do you want to accomplish during your time here at Goodfellow Air Force Base? I would like to accomplish a lot of things while here on Goodfellow AFB, but I would really like to receive my Community College of the Air Force while I’m here.
     
  5. What has been the most meaningful experience you have had on Goodfellow? The most meaningful experience here on Goodfellow had to be the time I was coined by Chief Kirkpatrick. I gave a brief to the wing staff, which was a great experience. They were interested in what I had to say and afterwards Chief KP asked a few questions and then coined me.
     
  6. Is there any advice or anything you would like to share? Be in control of your career.
