As a migrant from Freetown, Sierra Leone, West Africa, Aisha grew up watching her mother manage a popular hair studio on the third floor of their home. Her father was a successful Accountant and businessman who was respected in their community. Their migration to the United States was seen as a chance for them to provide opportunities to their children that were not available in their country. After overcoming a tough transition, Aisha obtained her first leadership opportunity at the young age of 20 as a Head Teller at a bank. As she pursued her career in banking while also pursuing her degree, a chance to join the military was presented to her, so she decided to join the United States Air Force. This decision was instrumental in who Aisha became a leader, and she still serves today with over 15 years of service.
