Accomplishments
- While serving in the Air Force I joined a new initiative on base called the White Rope Program. To graduate the program I learned how to talk to someone who was struggling with suicide ideation or harming themselves and get them the help they needed. We learned about all the resources on base and were given cards to give to people. We were trained to never let the member out of our site until we gave them a warm handoff to someone who could help them more.
- One of the things required to graduate from basic training is taking a 100 question test. On the test, I finished top 3 of my class after getting 96 of 100 questions correct.
