For Marine Corps veteran Larysa Murray, service didn’t end when she left the military.

“I served in the United States Marine Corps for 5 years.”

Murray left the Marines with the rank of sergeant, but the leadership skills she developed during that time continue to shape her work today.

“Challenges in the Marine Corps as a woman, I guess, would be that we're just simply outnumbered.”

At the time she served, women made up only a small percentage of the force. Murray says navigating that environment taught her how to connect with people from different backgrounds and experiences.

“You really develop a skill set to be able to connect with people one-on-one to become an effective leader.”
