Any advice for future award winners?

My advice to future award winners is to keep up your fantastic work but make sure it has an element of YOU encapsulated there. YOU are what can make, break or elevate your team to the next level. YOU have it in you!

What are you proud of?

I am proud of trying outrageous things and sticking to it! Because of that nature, I am beginning my certification for individual paragliding.

What’s the most interesting historical figure you’d love to meet?

A historical figure I would want to meet is Nadezhda Popova. She was a Soviet pilot in WWII as a commander of the Night Witches. She and her regiment would fly old decommissioned crop dusters with no navigational equipment, only a hand compass, ruler and a map. The Night Witches would cut their engines to move silently over targets, only able to carry two bombs per run. Popova set the record of 18 successful runs in a single night against the Germans. Fearless flying!

Favorite Sport?

My favorite sport to play is Softball, but my favorite sport to watch is Downhill Skiing.
