The career fairs that the college held helped better establish my interviewing and other professional skills. The research opportunities provided me with opportunities to learn about various niches within the aviation industry. Also, the college gave considerable financial assistance to the Purdue Chapter of Women in Aviation organization, which I have been involved with all four years. This made it possible for our organization to afford things such as sending our members to the national conferences.

Thanks go to:

My advisors, Rose Delong-Bolyard and Suzi Walker – for keeping me on track all four years and for supporting me in everything along the way.
My professor, Denver Lopp – for being the most practical (and somewhat crazy) professor that prepared me for real world application in the industry. Also, for being an awesome mentor beyond the classroom.
Patti Keen – for being the most considerate boss and an extremely supportive advisor for our Purdue Chapter of Women in Aviation organization.
