Tomorrow My Sunshine Will Come: Memoirs of Women Who Survived Domestic Violence (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781496110404)

Jennifer C. Foxworthy was born and raised in York, Pennsylvania. Once she graduated high school from William Penn Senior High in 1991, she embarked on a journey that would lead her into an illustrious career serving in the United States Navy. Jennifer served her country proudly for 21 years. In the first four years of her Naval career, Jennifer was an Ocean Systems Technical Analyst. Wanting to try something different, she eventually signed up for and went through the Naval Aircrew Candidate training in Pensacola, Florida in 1995. One of her greatest accomplishments was being among the elite few to graduate from this school. Surprisingly, she was the first African American female in over five years to complete this training. For over 14 years as an Aircrewman, she flew on three different platforms (E6-A, P-3 and EP-3), flew in combat missions in support of three wars (Kosovo, Afghanistan and Iraq), logged over 3700 flight hours and received four Air Medals. She also knocked down stereotypes by becoming the first African American female Aircrewman, the first African American Aircrewman in the enlisted ranks and the first female In Flight Technician during her squadron tours. Jennifer's distinguished military career didn't stop there. She changed her focus in the military to Active Duty welfare and in December 2011 she became a certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor. Jennifer earned numerous personal achievements and awards including Outstanding Military Person of the Year (an honor recognized by the Washington State Masons), 2007 Naval Air Station Whidbey Island Sea Sailor of the Year, two Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medals, along with several achievement medals, unit and campaign awards. She also earned an Associate of Science in Business Administration Degree from Columbia College of Missouri and is an active Alumnus. Jennifer is excited about her second career choice as a motivational speaker, author and blogger. She is also the proud Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Inspirationally Speaking, LLC as well as Founder of the Unstoppable You Women's Conference. Jennifer is living proof that dreams, passions and goals are obtainable if you trust in God, surround yourself with positive people and put one foot in front of the other. Some of Jennifer's positive people include her wonderful husband, Thomas, a three-year-old son, Noah, and her three stepchildren- Josh, Laura and Matt. Jennifer and her family reside in southern Maryland.
