After over twenty years in aviation as a flight attendant, Rose decided that she needed to pivot after Covid-19 adversely affected the travel industry. She became a member of Rung and completed the Women in Geospatial program in collaboration with Maryville University. Rose is now writing her second chapter as a Geospatial Technician I, and has found a way to merge her love of travel and maps with a career that allows her to see the world without her leaving her office.

On her experience at Rung for Women
The Rung experience has taught me to be coachable and accountable professionally and personally. The one-on-one coaching, career coaching, Professional Power Skills, and Maryville course were the best experiences of a growth mindset I have ever seen. Resilience and a growth mindset inspired a life long goal. When you are a member of Rung, you have a sisterhood that extends and gives more than you could ever imagine.

On where she sees herself in ten years
I see myself in a leadership role, mentor and a person that will create opportunities for more women empowerment.
