This sentiment reveals her awareness of the historical significance of her role and the inspiration she aims to provide for future generations of women in the military.
'Discipline and focus were always big in my family,' Raykhman shared. 'It's been instilled in me since I was young. My family has always encouraged me and my brothers to serve the community in some way.' This background has shaped her values and driven her commitment to service and leadership.
Aspiring to serve as an army cyber officer, Raykhman emphasized, 'I'm motivated by the threat of internet-enabled terrorism.' She is actively involved in various leadership roles at West Point, showcasing her dedication to addressing modern security challenges.
