I Want to Hear from You!

Hello BPW! Happy May!

Hopefully, you’re getting excited for summer; I know I am. This summer is going to be one of many transitions for me and my family. From me moving to a new place and getting ready for law school, to my brother graduating from college in NYC, and my parents potentially PCSing, it will be a busy summer.

May is National Military Appreciation Month, which is close to my heart, as my father is active-duty Army and almost everyone in my family is in the Army or married to someone in the Army. It's truly like a family business for us.

Those who serve are so honorable, and I am thankful for their sacrifice. In addition to honoring them this month, I would like to ask you to also honor their families this month. While their service is wildly different, military families also serve. Whether it’s a support system for each other during deployments and difficult times, moving with their active-duty spouses or parents to support the mission, or ensuring many traditions are preserved for families and soldiers, the families are there every day.

I am extremely proud of my father and am honored to be part of a military family. It was a great way to growup, and I appreciate the perspective it gave me of the world around me, and the values it instilled in me.

So, happy National Military Appreciation Month to all our Military-Connected BPW Ladies. Your service is greatly appreciated!
