When I was a child, my cousin had a little boy. So I had a
small responsibility in keeping him safe. Now that he's with the
Navy, he has a big responsibility of keeping me safe. My father
was in the military. Also, my grandfather was in the
military. The passion that I have for what I do is a
reflection of my family. My brother in law actually serves
in the Army National Guard.My father served in the US Air
Force, my husband served in the US Navy, and my nephew now serves
in the US Navy. My father was in the Marine Corps. I was in the
Marine Corps and now my nephew's
and Marine Corps having a family member and it puts a different
perspective on it. Your safety is always on my mind. I want to
do my part to make sure that the service members have the
right equipment to do their job and keeping the rest of us safe.
From the vehicle and aircraft that transport him.
To the uniform, the helmet, and the weapon he carries all come
at a cost. Being accountable for providing warfighters equipment
is an absolute honor to me. It drives my passion to ensure the
timeliness in quality for either product or services to
support the warfighter.
