New Program Administrator, Cadet Aviation

Hi! I’m a Program Administrator with Civil Air Patrol, where I help keep things running smoothly so our members—especially our cadets—can focus on what really matters: growing as leaders and exploring the world of aviation.

One of the coolest parts of this job is watching young people discover that flying isn’t just exciting—it’s a real career path, one that’s meaningful, challenging, and full of opportunities. Whether it’s through aerospace education, hands-on training, or leadership experiences, we’re not just shaping future pilots—we’re shaping confident, capable people ready to serve and lead in any field.

I’m proud to be part of a team that builds character, supports community, and makes aviation feel accessible and awesome!

A little about me—I’m a proud military spouse, an Air Force mom, and someone who’s passionate about helping young people grow into their potential. I love serving locally in military/community relations, military spouse employment initiatives, youth education programs, and supporting our youngest military-connected members. I hold degrees in Project Management and Human Resources: Training & Development, and I’m currently pursuing a Graduate degree in Industrial-Organizational Psychology.

Outside of work, you can usually find me out on the water, cheering on UAB sports, or planning my next travel adventure. My family is my pride and joy—I have three amazing adult children and one awesome grandson who keeps life extra fun.
