About

I am a disabled Retired International Lead Flight Attendant that started her career for the esteemed PanAm Airways and was in a merger deal that brought me to United Airlines for another 20 years of flying. While traveling the world I engaged in cultural experience, gained exposure to foreign relations and International politics. Beginning my flying career at the age of 18 enabled me mature with a global perspective.
Although a devastating accident has disabled me from returning to flying, I soon began to further my awareness and increase my knowledge in the classroom, graduating Magna Cum Laude from the Community College of Aurora.
My goal to remain a global citizen brought me to Colorado University School of Business. My sought after degree in International Business is highlighted by my 23+ years of diverse cultural immersion and management skills.
My physcial disabilities are a challenge most days, but my brain is sharp and I intend to maintain my standard of academic excellence.
