March is Women’s History Month, a time to commemorate and celebrate the vital role of women throughout history and in our everyday lives. And what better way to celebrate than by shining a spotlight on the remarkable women of the Columbus Regional Airport Authority who are making a difference every single day?
Women play a vital role in every aspect of the airport experience. Whether it’s an administrative assistant providing crucial support, a senior talent acquisition specialist recruiting the best and brightest, or a customer experience and marketing manager crafting a welcoming environment, these women bring a unique perspective and a wealth of talent to their positions.
Meet some of the inspiring women who keep our airport soaring high. Read what they have to say about their roles at CRAA and how women can continue shaping the future:
Women are resilient, we can do anything we put our mind to doing, and with that thought process, we will continue to excel."
Most of us still don't really know what we want to be when we grow up, but as long as we are learning and having fun along the way, that's all that really matters."
I am very grateful to work for an amazing manager who really cares about her employees."
This is such a fun and rewarding industry. There is opportunity and space for everyone. Don't hesitate to ask for help and support to pursue your passion!"
I received the Award of Excellence in 2019. Some of the most memorable moments are watching the change. I saw the new tower being built. I was here for the remodel of the current terminal. I will also be here for the building of the new terminal."
As a mid-level manager, it gives me great fulfillment to help a new team member become successful at CRAA and move forward in their career path."
With more exposure and experience, girls and women will take advantage of the opportunities in aviation. Shadowing, mentoring, internships, and co-ops are key to the future of women in aviation and attracting talent to positions in every functional area of our business."
Continue celebrating all month long
