Meet C2C Rachael Davis from Greensboro, North Carolina.
 
A Systems Engineering major with an Astronautical concentration, Rachael chose #USAFA for the opportunity to earn a college education while finding community, connection and purpose through military service. She hopes to serve in the usspaceforce and continue working in the space domain.
 
Experiences that have shaped her development include:

• 𝐂𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐭 𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐒𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐧. Gained a deeper understanding of how space capabilities support the joint fight while learning to care for her people and keep them focused on the mission.
• 𝐢𝟓. Expanded her understanding of how integrating space capabilities supports the joint force while gaining additional leadership experience.
 
🏒 Rachael especially enjoys hockey and the energy surrounding game day. She also supports the Space tailgate in Falcon Alley, where she shares how cadets learn about space and its role in the joint fight.
