Home Loans for Active Duty Military
I’ve been an Air Force wife for almost 7 years and worn the uniform myself for 8! After graduating and commissioning from the University of South Carolina, I had 3 Active Duty Air Force assignments at Columbus Air Force Base, Eglin Air Force Base, and Hurlburt Field. I married my husband, Drew, in 2017 when we were both Lieutenants! I separated and joined the Air Force Reserve in 2023 to provide our family a little more stability. I am currently assigned to the Pentagon in my Reserve role, but working full-time in Air Force Special Operations Command in Florida. We have two amazing kiddos, ages 4 and 1, and another one on the way. I love binging through books on my Kindle, sneaking in sunny days at the beach, doing Peloton workouts, and traveling every chance I get.
