  • Edwards Extremism Stand-Down Day

    As a child, I looked up to members of the US Air Force.  I was inspired by their amazing performance in Desert Storm, read stories of aerial valor in Vietnam and Korea, and knew the origin stories of the US Army Air Corp by heart.  In short, I wanted to be on a high performing team that was devoted to aerospace, united with each other, and selfless in commitment to American ideals.

    Women in test history

    Women’s history month plays an important part in the highlighting achievements that may have been buried throughout history. Just as they have in other fields, women pioneers have played a major role in the aerospace field, particularly at Edwards Air Force Base, California.

  • Leadership By Example

    There’s absolutely no doubt that we’re living through multiple unprecedented events - simultaneously. Your continued leadership *by example* in our four simultaneous combat fronts is vital to the current and future defense of our Nation, her Partners, and her Allies.

    We have many things to be thankful for!

    At its core, I see the Thanksgiving Holiday as a time to cherish close friends and family, but also to reflect in a grateful manner on the blessings we have received this past year.  It remains my fondest hope that you will have a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday weekend, socially connecting in a manner that safeguards your family; keeping in mind that sacrifices this year in the height of a once-in-a-century pandemic will pay dividends for many Thanksgivings into the future.  I know the major events that shaped this year in unpredicted and unprecedented ways are not events or forces we want to repeat going forward, but if you look closely you’ll still see, as I do, many many things to be thankful for.
