Who is the most positive influence in your life and why?
The most positive influence in my life is my grandmother. She never lost hope in me for a single second. When my family and friends were attempting to talk me out of enlisting, she cheered me on. I will always be grateful to her for this. She is the strongest, kindest and most admirable person I have ever met in my life.

What would you like to accomplish during your Air Force career?
I would like to leave my career better than I found it by creating beneficial change for the continued success of future Air Force operations. I think Airmen should do their part today, for the Airmen of tomorrow.

What is the most interesting place you have traveled to and why do you feel that way?
The most interesting place I have traveled to is North Carolina. No explanation is needed.

What is your favorite book/ movie and why?
My favorite book and movie is "The Notebook." I think it is the greatest love story ever told.

If you have the opportunity to meet anyone in the world, who would it be and why?
I would like to meet Jimmy Valvano. He said, "Cancer can take away my physical abilities. It cannot touch my mind, it cannot touch my heart, and it cannot touch my soul. Take time everyday to laugh, to think, to cry."
