Women's History Month at NCIS




What an honor to be asked to speak to the NCIS team at the Navy Yard in DC this past Tuesday! In celebration of Women's History Month, Ralph Blincoe (Dep. Director) asked me to speak about balance and service, and to prepare, I got the chance to meet some really amazing women. These women are really making the rest of us look good...they're smart, tough, fun, and really work hard at balancing their professional and personal lives. Special agents Cate Smith and Heather Baines told me about some of their more interesting undercover experiences...and they both couldn't say enough about the great work that JAG lawyer Mindy Siefer does to make sure they get all the support they need. My sister Janet happened to be in town so it was wonderful to have her there to experience the day at NCIS. Director Tom Betro has obviously established a workplace where not only professionalism is at the highest levels, but there's a strong sense of family, and unity, and a celebration of diversity. Kudos to NCIS! It's a privilege for Remember My Service to have been part of that event.
