Women in Defense Conference

A coworker of mine and I had the opportunity to attend a Women in Defense Conference in Washington, D.C. in September. We heard from a range of speakers, many former military and now successful civilians. Both of us were able to ask a key female leader a question...I spoke with General Lori Robinson, the first female COCOM commnader (she leads NORAD and USNORTHCOM), and my coworker was able to speak with the Honorable Heather Wilson, the Secretary of the Air Force! 

Both were terrifying, we were shaking from nerves after. So after the conference, we went to Georgetown Cupcakes and stuffed our faces :)
