Hi friends!
It’s time for the November episode of our informal career series for students, and if I’m being honest, I think this is the coolest job title we’ve heard about yet…
Is your student interested in the Air Force?
Do they love puzzles, codes, and languages?
Do they talk about traveling overseas when they’re older?
If you answered “yes!” to the above, they need to hear from Rachel Lulich!
Rachel is a former Air Force cryptolinguist and current Civil Air Patrol volunteer. She’s going to share with us awesome insider details about…
- Joining the military
- Her job title and what it means
- What it’s really like to be deployed overseas
You’ll also hear about her life beyond the military, including her work as a near-future science fiction author actively launching the second book in her Fractured Galaxy series. (I read the first book, Random Walk, and loved it!)
If you haven’t heard, “Amanda Interviews…!” is my casual, monthly, Instagram Live interview series where we connect your student to professionals in creative, career, and athletic outlets.
Join us on Instagram Live @ Monday, Nov. 8th at 8 pm EST.
