#Seniors in just a few short months you will be High School Graduates! Congratulations on your 12 years of school! Now that it is coming to an end, what are your plans after you graduate? Some of you will go to college, but how are you going to pay for it? Will you receive Scholarships, take out student loans, hope that your parents and/or grandparents will pay for it -though they will not have a livelihood in their later years? Did you know that the Army Reserve will pay 100% tuition to any public college for just one weekend a month? That's right, the Army Reserve provides educational benefits from $43,652.00-$200,000.00 for just wearing the uniform anywhere from 38-45 days a year!!!

I am SSG Ortiz I was born in Puerto Rico. I always dreamed about joining the US Army since I was a little boy. I struggled to achieve my dream failing the ASVAB several times because English is my second language and the test is in English. .
I decided to go to College to become a Paramedic. I have an Associate Degree in Emergency Medical Technician. I worked as a Paramedic for twelve years. I loved my job, I was very successful in my medical career, so the doors opened for me to be an Emergency Technician Instructor. An offer that I gladly accepted. .
But I never gave up on my dream. Remember what my dream was? To join the US Army. Well, I made a plan to achieve my goal and this time I wasn’t accepting any defeat. I studied, and studied and studied. And guess what? I passed! .
I joined our force in 2012 as (15R) Apache Helicopter Repair. I’ve been stationed in Colorado, Washington State and Texas. With the Army I had traveled to many different countries like Indonesia, Hong Kong and Japan among others. I also deployed to Iraq in support to the Operation Inherent Resolve against ISIS. After my deployment I got promoted to Staff Sergeant and got my assignment to be an Army Recruiter, I love it so I fully converted to 79R. .
I’m actually pursuing my Bachelor Degree in Digital and Social Media Marketing at Southern New Hampshire University. .
I’m happily single now and have a 17 years son who is following my steps who wants to be an American Soldier too. I’m an animal lover, I am vegetarian. I have a beautiful Maltese dog called “Puffy”. My hobbies are fishing, hiking, outdoors and to go on road trips. .
I enjoy recruiting and love to help others to achieve their dreams of joining the US Army. -
I am very active on social media. You can follow me on Instagram @otz_tizzboy

Meet: @unbreakable_cat I'm Cat I'm 24. In 2016 I decided to be a firefighter. I had people put me down and tell me I should just stick to EMS. So I stepped on the scale at 252 lbs, signed up for the gym and in 6 months dropped over 40 lbs. Fast forward 3 years, I'm down over 100 lbs with lifestyle changes and exercise. My motivation now is my career. When someone calls 911 I want them to have the confidence in me to provide the best possible care. I also don't want this job to kill me. The amount of stress is in this job can ruin you. A lot of people die from suicide and cardiac arrest in my line of work and that has definitely changed my views on body positivity. I do think it's about loving yourself, but I think it's about loving yourself enough to be the best you that you can be and realizing you take it a day at a time. My hope is that I inspire at least one other person to take control of their life. I'm also hoping to get a health initiative started at work to help out my coworkers so that they have long happy lives. Starting tip: make gym friends that'll help you with understanding health and find “why” other than appearances those fade no matter what size you are. ________________ How has the Wlstories community influenced your journey? The @wlstories community has influenced my journey for the better. Within it I was able to meet other normal folks just trying to figure it out like me.

How this alumna went from respected business leader and Army veteran to state treasurer
By Tom McGuire
Marketing and Communications
To say Stacy Garrity ’86 is not your typical politician is an understatement. She went from political unknown to winning a state row office, a journey that has taken the Bradford County native around the world. Her election victory shocked even the most optimistic of supporters and has suddenly thrust her into the thick of the political world.
So how did the Athens resident and retired Army Reserve colonel make it to Harrisburg as Pennsylvania’s new state treasurer?
The oldest of four daughters of Howard Garrity and Beverly Arbie, “we were raised to be about God, country, and family,” says Garrity. “We went to church every Wednesday and Sunday. In the summer, we attended vacation Bible school, and every morning at school, we recited the Pledge of Allegiance. And on top of everything, no matter what, I had to watch out for my sisters.”
“My parents were very encouraging,” says Garrity. “They always made it a big thing to say that whatever you put your mind to do, you can do it. I grew up just believing it in a naive sort of way.”
Following graduation from Sayre High School, Garrity knew she was going to college. It was something her parents drilled into her and her sisters. However, the first-generation student admits she didn’t put much thought into what school she would attend. “My reason for [first] choosing Lock Haven was simple; my friends were going there.”
“I wasn’t well-traveled and lived a pretty sheltered life, soI figured I could carpool and come back home on the weekends,” Garrity says. “After a year of adjusting to college life, I realized I should look for a school with more of a focus on business, which is what I was interested in. When I looked around, I saw that Bloomsburg had a very good program and so I transferred.”
As a student, Garrity was intrigued by business and economics and how markets function. It was a field dominated by males in the 1980s, which did not worry her in the least. At BU, Garrity studied finance and accounting and was influenced by then chair of the accounting and business law department, the late Bernard Dill.
“Professor Dill was very engaging with his students,” Garrity recalls. “He was funny, he was motivating, and he made me take a strong interest in the major.”
Garrity, a runner in high school, also found time to be a varsity cheerleader, but more importantly, she joined the Army ROTC on the encouragement of her parents, both 20-year Navy Reserve veterans.
“Basic training was an eye-opening experience. I wasn’t mentally prepared for people being in my face and yelling. We weren’t allowed to call home for a few weeks, and when we did, of course, my mom immediately said forget it and to come home. My dad said never quit. So, I stayed so I wouldn’t disappoint my father.”
“My dad supported us and told us ‘whatever your mind believes you can achieve, you can achieve’ and that ‘winners never quit, and quitters never win.’ It stuck with me.”
After graduating from BU, Garrity joined Global Tungsten and Powders Corporation , or GTP, in Towanda and advanced through several positions, becoming vice president of two of GTP’s three business units. She was VP for government affairs and industry liaison before stepping down to assume her elected position.
At the same time, Garrity was a member of the Army Reserve, but certainly had no plans for what would become a 30-year military career.
“My original idea was to do my six years and then get out. Of course, after 9/11, I went to Kuwait. That was my first deployment. Upon returning home, I just could not bring myself to get out. I felt I needed to stay and serve our country.”
GTP management shared Garrity’s commitment to the Reserve. “At some companies, when you return from a deployment, management will try to reorganize you out. But every time I got back from a deployment, GTP would promote me. They are a great company that has been around for more than 100 years. We have many third-generation employees. And, of course, they were always very proud of me and my work.”
“The entire GTP Group organization has deep respect for Stacy,” says Hermann Walser, president and CEO. “She is always looking beyond her direct responsibilities. The well-being of all stakeholders, customers, employees, community, and country, is her priority. Her ability to motivate and convince people, to communicate, and to network are unique. We will desperately miss her in this function, as well as a member of our GTP family.”
During her last overseas deployment in 2008-09, Garrity earned the nickname “Angel of the Desert” while serving as the acting battalion commander of the military police at Camp Bucca in southern Iraq.“Our mission was to provide care and custody with dignity and respect to the 7,000 detainees.”
“To make sure all the rules and regulations were being followed, I would walk the camp after midnight because I always said nothing good happens after midnight. I would walk with the senior staff and just check on soldiers. Then we would have meetings and make sure everything was going OK.”
“We also had a deal that as long as the detainees weren’t doing anything to hurt our soldiers, then we would allow family visitation or even some soccer matches. The detainees would also get videos once a week. But, among our staff, we had zero tolerance for abuse. We were the first internment facility to have zero abuse allegations. I’m very proud of that fact.”
Garrity’s outstanding work in Iraq did not go unnoticed. She was twice awarded the Bronze Star and received the Legion of Merit before retiring from the Army Reserve with the rank of colonel. Back in Bradford County, she and her husband Dan Gizzi, married since 2005, kept busy with water skiing, snowmobiling and running. But the desire to serve others was always an itch.
“As I was thinking about what to do, volunteer work and politics were two of my choices. I’ve always liked politics, so I called our state representative Tina Pickett, who I knew from my job in government affairs since my real passion is the industrial base and making sure that we keep jobs in the United States.”
Pickett recommended jumping into the race for Tom Marino’s U.S. Congressional seat after his resignation. “The next day she had me lined up with a political consultant, and they pushed me right into the deep end.” Despite 31 candidates in the race, Stacy finished a respectable sixth. That showing led the state GOP leadership to reach out to her in late 2019 to gauge her interest in running for statewide office.
“I started praying about it, and I thought, OK, Lord, if you want me to do this, then open the doors. And, he did, and then I still was pretty hesitant. When the GOP leadership said they couldn’t find anyone to run for treasurer, I decided, if not me, then who’s going to do it.”
Shortly after making the decision to run and receiving the state Republican Party’s endorsement to challenge incumbent Democrat Joe Torsella, the COVID-19 pandemic hit.
“Trying to campaign and raise money during a pandemic was hard. I had to go total grassroots with the odds stacked against me. A Republican had not defeated an incumbent Democrat since 1994. Many people told me ‘Stacy, you’re running a great campaign, but there’s no way you can beat this guy.’”
As Election Day grew closer and the polls showed a tight race, Torsella mounted an advertising blitz with a campaign chest of more than $2 million. But on election night, as results showed her in the lead, she was cautiously optimistic. A week later her opponent called to concede. She had pulled off a win no one had expected. “Joe was extremely gracious and very helpful in the transition. I’m sure it was tough for him because he was told there’s no way you’re going to lose to somebody from Bradford County who had never run before.”
At her swearing-in ceremony in January, Garrity did something most unusual. She offered Torsella an opportunity to deliver some remarks. “Joe rose above politics and helped ensure a smooth transition. As we say in the military, thanks for your service.”
In her inaugural address, Garrity touched upon several key points that have been a part of her life. “Service to others, be it in elected office or wearing the uniform of our country, is the highest calling.”
“Getting the job done in good faith and with honest effort is the watchword by which I promise to serve. I say we look ahead to a place of optimism and cooperation.”
Garrity says her goal for the office is to make transparency a top priority and put taxpayers first. “Putting those checks and balances in place is what I want to focus on so that we can make sure that we’re being a good steward of our taxpayers’ money. Taking transparency to the next level is something that I want to do, and then probably further enhancing the savings programs.”
Throughout her journey from rural Pennsylvania to the battlefields of Iraq and then through the rigors of a political campaign, Garrity has never forgotten her roots. Her advice to young girls and women is to remain true to your values.
“I’ve really tried to live my life with integrity, selfless service, honor, loyalty, and duty. If somebody like me from Bradford County, who grew up on the left side of middle-class, can put myself through college, join the military, then work in manufacturing and become the first female vice president in my company, deploy three times overseas, and retire a colonel, then anyone can do it.”
As for the next part of the Stacy Garrity journey, only one person knows for sure.
“People have already called me about running for other offices, and I’ve told them I campaigned on staying in the job for four years and want to be the best treasurer I can for the people of Pennsylvania. And then we’ll see what God has in store for me.”
Spoken like a true non-politician.
