Philosophy:

"Learn as much as you can from others. You don't have to do everything they say, but you're adding tools to your toolbox." (armywcap.com, 08 Mar 2020)

BASE CHANGE
In December 2016 she moved her training base from the US Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado, to the US Army Marksmanship Unit [AMU] in Fort Benning, Georgia. "Although I loved my time spent at the Olympic Training Center, I always went back and forth with the idea of joining the Army. I travelled and trained with a lot of the guys who were already in the AMU, so it was a good transition for me. Any time you can take a chance to broaden your horizons, you should try it. I'm very happy with the choice I made, and honestly wish I joined earlier." (defense.gov, 15 May 2019)
