Activities
I enjoy activities that allow creativity and thinking "outside the box". Some hobbies that bring the greatest joy to me are baking and cooking. I am constantly challenging myself to learn new things, so I am always trying my hand at a new skill or hobby. Most recently, I have been enjoying painting in my free time. Finding time to pursue diverse interests is what fuels me with energy and focus that translates to my exceptional work ethic. I love spending time with people and making new friends! I earned the Sikorsky Maintenance Award at my Federal Technician job for my hard work and dedication to the job. I earned an Army Achievement Medal for graduating from the Basic Leadership Course on the Commandant's List, and I was recommended for another one from the Army two-week Annual Training due to my above-standard work performance and training soldiers for aircraft maintenance.
