After a decade of military service, she embarked on a new career journey when she joined McKinstry as a Hiring Our Heroes Corporate Fellow through the Solar Ready Vets program. Following a successful fellowship, Serena was hired as a project manager in their Distributed Energy Resources business unit. Today, she oversees the construction phases of commercial rooftop solar projects.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-from-combat-to-clean-energy\">From Combat to Clean Energy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With ten years of service as a Force Support Officer in the Air Force, Serena faced a pivotal decision about her transition to civilian life. While she had a successful military career, her passion for renewable energy solutions pushed her toward a new path. \u201cI did not want to be a bystander but part of the solution,\u201d she reflects about her motivation for a career shift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Related:<\/strong> <a href=\"\/stories\/national-guard-veteran-kurt-holko-solar-hiring-fair-mckinstry\/\">\u2018Solar is the Perfect Path for Me\u2019: Veteran Pursues New Career After Connecting with McKinstry at Virtual Hiring Fair<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During her military career, Serena honed essential skills that proved invaluable in the solar industry. She developed resilience, creativity in problem-solving, and the ability to collaborate effectively with diverse teams. \u201cThe military taught me to approach challenges with a positive attitude and to manage conflict,\u201d she shares. These &#8220;soft skills&#8221; became critical assets as she began her new career journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-harnessing-opportunities-for-a-sustainable-career\"><strong>Harnessing Opportunities<\/strong> for a Sustainable Career<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As she navigated her transition, Serena attended a <a href=\"\/events\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hiring Our Heroes hiring fair<\/a>.
