Jessica wanted to be a military linguist in the Navy but by a turn of events related to an issue around a security clearance, she got reassigned to Aviation Admin in the middle of her Boot Camp training. Surprisingly the career field of being an Aviation Admin gave her opportunities to travel and learn about how the Navy operated. When she eventually cross-trained to become a Linguist she found out she actually enjoyed being an admin more.
