Tasked with building the Air Force’s first Combat Air Base Squadron Civil Engineering unit from the ground up, she and her team transformed a concept into an operational force in under a year. Guided by trust, clarity, and a commitment to empowering her Airmen, she prepared them to operate as a cohesive, agile team ready to project airpower from even the most austere environments.
