8:30 - 9:45 a.m. | Flight Path: Proving Passion Beats Pedigree in Aviation | Laurel Lindemann | EAA WomenVenture Center
Laurel Lindemann
Growing up, I always had a deep love for air and space, but my greatest passion was astronomy. I was fascinated by the stars, planets, and the vastness of the universe. However, it wasn’t until I attended my very first EAA event as a young girl that my world truly changed. Watching pilots perform breathtaking aerobatics and hearing the roar of jets screaming across the sky ignited a new passion in me: aviation. From that moment, I knew I wanted to be a pilot, and nothing was going to stop me from doing it. Starting with zero experience, I pursued my training at Fox Valley Technical College (FVTC) in Oshkosh, a city steeped in aviation history. I worked tirelessly, advancing through every stage until I earned my certified flight instructor (CFI) certificate. What makes my story unique is that I am the only person in my entire family to ever become a pilot. No family history or legacy in aviation guided me, just a pure, unwavering love for airplanes and flying. That love fueled every step of my journey, proving that passion and dedication can break barriers and help anyone achieve their dreams in aviation.
A family legacy in aviation can be a helpful head start, but it’s not a requirement to pursue a life in the sky or any facet of the industry. This talk invites aspiring pilots and aviation enthusiasts from all backgrounds to explore how passion and perseverance can overcome the absence of pedigree. Together, we’ll discuss the challenges faced by those starting from scratch and celebrate the unique journeys that lead to the cockpit or occupation. This is more than a speech; it’s an open conversation. Attendees are encouraged to share their own experiences, struggles, and triumphs, reminding us all that there’s no single path to flight.
11:30 a.m. - 12:45 p.m. | Breaking Barriers: Paving the Way for Women in Aviation | Jen Morgan | EAA WomenVenture Center
Jen Morgan
Jen Morgan is a Quality Control Inspector at Southwest Airlines. She has been with the company for 23 years serving as the first female Inspector based in Dallas, and the second female Inspector overall in the company's history. Before joining Southwest, she served as an Aircraft Mechanic in the Navy, making her a seventh-generation military member. Additionally, she worked at a transport repair and maintenance company, where she gained expertise in sheet metal repairs. Jen was inspired to pursue a career in aviation, specifically in aircraft maintenance, after serving as a JROTC Squadron Commander in high school. This experience allowed her to observe the important work that mechanics do at various military bases. She decided to apply to Southwest Airlines after a former coworker recommended the book "Nuts!: Southwest Airlines' Crazy Recipe for Business and Personal Success" and encouraged her to obtain her Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) license. Although her work is mainly done independently, Jen values the moments when her team comes together for cultural events, like BBQs and holiday parties. She also appreciates the opportunities to attend conferences, give hangar tours, and talk to students about career opportunities in aviation. While she initially aspired to become a pilot, Jen discovered her passion for fixing planes and has since dedicated her career to this field.
In an industry historically dominated by men, women continue to rise, challenge norms, and redefine what success looks like in aviation. This presentation explores the inspiring journey of a female veteran who transitioned to a role in aircraft maintenance within commercial aviation—a field where women remain significantly underrepresented. Through personal insights and real-world lessons, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the importance of creating inclusive spaces where women not only participate—but lead.

I grew up in Berkeley, California. I knew by the age of 10 that I wanted to become a pilot. Coming from a nonaviation family, it took some time to figure out how to reach my goal, but some simple yet solid advice from my older brother to get a job at an airport set the wheels in motion on an adventure I never imagined.
Over the years, my experience has included towing gliders over the Rockies, charter and medevac in California, glacier tours in Alaska, and seaplane flying in the Maldives and Croatia. For the last nine years, I am grateful to have landed my dream job as an aerial firefighter flying the CL-415 Super Scooper.

1:00 - 2:15 p.m. | Aviation: A Dream Without Fences or Borders | Tammie Jo Shults and Aveen Khalaf | EAA WomenVenture Center
Tammie Jo Shults
Tammie Jo Shults possessed an early interest in flying, but she faced various obstacles on her path to becoming a military pilot. Applying her lifelong trait of perseverance, she eventually became one of the first female F/A-18 Hornet pilots in the United States Navy. Her duties, before women were allowed into combat roles, encompassed teaching out of control flight as well as serving as an aggressor pilot against TOPGUN students, other squadrons, ships, and/or entire carrier groups. After concluding her Navy career, she flew over forest fires one summer then became a pilot for Southwest Airlines. Tammie Jo's incredible history and talent received wide acclaim on April 17, 2018, when she successfully landed a Southwest Boeing 737 after an engine exploded at high altitude, causing multiple system failures and rapid depressurization. The successful landing of Flight 1380 in Philadelphia saved 148 total lives including passengers and crew. Tammie Jo’s memoir, Nerves of Steel, is a national best seller in which she encourages others to find what they are suited for and get started. She serves on the Angel Flight Southcentral Board and Pearl Harbor Aviation Board as well as in her church. Tammie Jo started a program, “Navigating Life,” nine years ago with local high-risk elementary age children. She has been awarded the Southwest Airline Flight and Winning Spirit award, the Wings Award of New York, and Outstanding Aviator award, among others. Captain Shults most recently was inducted into the Texas Aviation Hall of Fame.
Aveen Khalaf
Aveen Jasim Khalaf, a young yazidi girl from Iraq, witnessed her family’s harrowing escape from ISIS. Pursued up a mountain, they found refuge in an unfinished building with a family among twenty-eight other families for a year. The building lacked windows, doors, and electricity, and the conditions were extreme, characterized by scorching heat, freezing cold, hunger, and fear. Aveen harbored a secret fear that her opportunity for education in Iraq would never be fulfilled.
A year later, Aveen embarked on a new journey, walking a steep mountain road for forty minutes to and from school, accompanied by her twin younger sisters, who were in first grade, as she transitioned to third grade.
Despite enduring the shadows of ISIS’s atrocities, Aveen nurtured an unwavering dream that would not be deterred by external threats: to become a pilot. With the exceptional guidance of an English teacher and a virtual meeting with Captain Tammie Jo Shults, Aveen began to envision a path towards aviation. They facilitated her membership with Women In Aviation International, and Aveen diligently sought and applied for scholarships.
Initially, her family dismissed her aspiration to become a pilot as mere youthful fantasy, lacking the practicality of traveling abroad. However, their perspective gradually shifted, and they became her most ardent supporters. Her dream had transcended their own, becoming a shared aspiration. During this period, her family continued to relocate at a moment’s notice to evade ISIS’s presence. Despite the challenges, Aveen remained steadfast in her academic pursuits, consistently achieving first place in her class year after year.
After four consecutive applications to the United World College scholarship program, Aveen was finally accepted. The news was met with overwhelming joy and celebration, as if her family had been the recipients of the scholarship themselves.
Aveen embarked on an educational journey from Iraq to New Mexico, joining the United World College (UWC). During the Christmas break, she was invited to spend the holidays with Dean and Tammie Jo Shults, who warmly welcomed her into their extended family. Notably, she achieved a remarkable milestone by piloting an airplane, her second day of her Christmas holiday—it surpassed her wildest expectations.
To start the new year in 2025, Aveen spent time with her amazing English teacher, Miss Pat, who had been instrumental in opening many doors for her throughout her academic journey.
As Aveen concludes her inaugural year of her six-year education in the United States, where she has dedicated herself to rigorous academic pursuits. Since the commencement of summer break, she has engaged in daily studies, flying, and additional ground school activities. As hard as she is working she feels this is a great summer break!Tammie Jo Shults recalls a memorable moment or two in her career and the people who were more important than the airplanes… leading into the significance a single conversation can have in life. For example, a Zoom to a school room in an Iraqi refugee camp, followed by backpacks filled with aviation information, results in a life with a different trajectory. Aveen Khalaf, who now has a six-year scholarship, began her ground school earlier this year and has been airborne this summer — working hard on her private pilot certificate. She came from a place of no opportunity (for her people, the Ysidi of the Kurdish tribe, or her sex, females need not apply in Iraq) to a country ready and eager to teach anyone ready to learn.

Congratulations to Katie Bromschwig for creating the winning EAA WomenVenture 2025 T-shirt design!
Katie, while not a pilot, is very plugged into the aviation community.
Her husband’s family has been part of the aviation community forever — they have attended EAA AirVenture Oshkosh for as long as she can remember. Her husband flies for an airline as did her father-in-law, and her husband’s grandfather flew fighters in World War II.
Katie has always enjoyed crafting, making fun shirts and signs for family and friends. When she saw this year’s WomenVenture theme was lifesaving missions, Katie was inspired to create a shirt in honor of Asheville, North Carolina.
Hurricane Helene devastated the region in the fall of 2024. Many came to aid the community and continue to help residents rebuild. Katie worked with her husband to identify the runways and landmarks in Asheville, which she incorporated into the design.
