    One of the most important extracurricular activities I have been a leader in is the JROTC program. This program has provided me with so many opportunities, whether it be to learn about myself or to serve others. For example, my involvement with the color guard helped me develop confidence in my abilities, and therefore helped me learn valuable leadership skills I would later apply to being commander of the team, then personnel adjutant, and ultimately battalion commander. Through being mentored and encouraged by others, I discovered I had the potential to be a leader. As a result of my involvement in the program, I have become more self-confident, and among other things, I have learned the importance of turning failures into success.…

    Commanding Airmen overseas in combat and honorably representing the U.S. Air Force internationally has taught me to be a leader and a professional, qualities that have benefited me in and out of uniform. Deployments have given me the opportunity to interact and work with individuals from numerous cultures, and the experience taught me that through recognition and understanding of different cultures, better relationships can be fostered by opening the lines of communications.
