Dedicated and disciplined Air Force SERE Specialist with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and demonstrated success in physically and mentally demanding environments. Experienced in leading rigorous training programs, instructing survival and emergency medical techniques, and fostering teamwork under pressure. Committed to leveraging extensive knowledge of health, fitness, and resilience to transition into nursing and provide high-quality patient care.
As a Cadet Performance Lab Technician at the University of North Georgia, I worked closely with faculty to conduct health and fitness assessments for ROTC cadets and collegiate athletes. I gained hands-on experience performing graded exercise tests, body composition analyses, and muscular fitness evaluations. This role strengthened my understanding of human physiology, health monitoring, and wellness promotion—skills directly applicable to nursing. It also taught me how to assess individuals with varying physical needs, communicate findings clearly, and contribute to the overall health and performance of specialized populations.
As a SERE Specialist in the U.S. Air Force since May 2021, I completed rigorous training and graduated top of my class—the first woman to do so. I instruct personnel in survival skills, emergency medical care, and physical conditioning in high-pressure settings. This role has strengthened my leadership, resilience, and passion for health, inspiring my pursuit of nursing to provide compassionate, skilled patient care.
