Recruiting wasn’t a career path I initially envisioned. My background in education, counseling, and behavioral support shaped my passion for helping others, but eventually led me to seek new challenges and growth. That search brought me to recruiting—and ultimately to aviation.
Today, I support aviation maintenance recruiting for Piedmont Airlines, where my work aligns with the company’s mission and values of Caring, Compliance, Communication, and Community. I’m proud to help connect skilled aviation technicians with meaningful careers while supporting the next generation of aviation professionals. Four years into this journey, I continue to learn, grow, and find purpose in the work I do every day.
