>> I got my bachelor's degree from Temple, and then I immediately went to graduate school
at Northwestern and got my master's.
And then I returned to Temple, and I came back
for the Professional Studies Certificate program,
finished up my education certificate requirements.
And I just stayed in the area, about two years freelancing, teaching privately,
substituting in two area school districts and taking auditions.
And the Air Force audition came up, and that was my lucky day.
I was offered a position, and here I am.
Once you are offered the position, you go to your local recruiter,
because still while they do some prescreening questions prior to audition,
you have to go through the whole process.
So you go to your local recruiter, and they put you through the entire enlistment process.
You get a basic training date.
You go off to basic training, and then the difference is with the Air Force bands
where it's direct reporting, there's no tech school.
So as soon as you graduate from basic training, you report directly to your band.
