“Deployments were hard as a single mom, of course. But, they were also the times we could make a real difference. I got to see my actions affect real change, in real-time. The work we did throughout my service was meaningful, but this was especially true on deployments. Most veterans choose to join the public sector because we want to share our vast experience. Helping and being of service is in our blood, and I believe our global experiences make us a great resource for federal agencies. ”
