I had the honor of introducing @theresaclaiborne at Elizabeth City State University’s national aviation day event. I will add a part of my speech below, highlighting the impact that she continues to leave on me everyday. 

“Captain Claiborne showed me what was possible, but she also taught me what would be required to achieve it. She taught me that excellence is not something you announce, it is something you practice. She taught me to learn from my mistakes, to work hard and then work harder, to hold myself to a high standard, and to leave the door open for the young women coming behind me. Because of her, I know I belong in every room I have prepared myself to enter. I know I am qualified. I know that I will earn my success. And I know that when more is required of me, I am equipped to rise to the moment.”

Forever grateful for my bestie!
