Skye graduated college with a degree in journalism. She had always wanted to be a field journalist who traveled around the world in search of ground-breaking news. After several years and several desk jobs, Skye decided the best way to pursue her goals was to join the military. This allowed her to travel around the world while doing what she loved. Along with her journalism skills, Skye also found a passion for photography when working in the field. Her expertise led her onto the USS Flagg's Carrier Deck Crew where her duties are Photographer's mate, Catapult and arresting gear crew, Air wing maintenance personnel, Cargo-handling personnel, Ground Support Equipment (GSE) troubleshooter, Hook runner, and Helicopter landing signal enlisted personnel (LSE).
