Kydreel G.
US Coast Guard, Machinery Technician

I have been entrusted with leading Coast Guard members on deployments, including responding to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill of 2010, providing waterside presidential security, developing the workforce, and ensuring our members return home safely. The skills and knowledge I acquired in the Coast Guard have seamlessly transitioned into my current role at Alliant Energy.

From day one Alliant Energy recognized my military service and encouraged me to join the veterans committee. The Navy provided me a strong technical foundation which led to my eventual position as Lead Relay/Electrical Technician.
