Favorite Quote: “The Guide says there is an art to flying", said Ford, "or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.”
― Douglas Adams, Life, the Universe and Everything

Anne made her first skydive on September 4, 2022 and received her A license on October 30, 2022. She is an active-duty Air Force member and is working on a Ph.D. in computer engineering at Duke University. Anne spends most of her free time skydiving at Paraclete XP or one of the many drop zones in Florida. In addition to skydiving, Anne is a paragliding pilot and scuba diver, and has been known to frequent both shipwrecks off the east coast of the United States and the bottom of the ocean in search of Megalodon teeth. She also enjoys backpacking with the grizzlies in Alaska, hiking up mountains and in national parks, skiing, and camping in her Airstream.
