Instead, she ended up gaining a Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) scholarship with the Air Force and served in the Air Force. She is still currently serving in the Reserves. She struggled with imposter syndrome. And she can pinpoint how the struggle intensified when a Colonel her senior year told her she would never commission. She used his words to motivate her to prove him wrong and has worked to overcome imposter syndrome. And it helped her accomplish a lot but she also struggled with not feeling good enough.
