About Cindy

My father was a Navy pilot during WW2, and my mother was a WAVE. One brother flew F-4 Phantoms for the Navy before becoming a commercial pilot, and the other brother was in the Army during Viet Nam. I am passionate about our military and eager to help separating veterans translate their military experience into civilian language so it may be seen as a huge asset to any organization.
