Our Board of directors

Paula Morgan was born and raised on a dairy farm in the Midwest. During her years on the farm, she showed cattle, participated in 4-H, and FFA, played in volleyball, ran in track, sang in choir, played in drama, among other extracurricular activities. She had a pony named Snoopy, whom she often set out on little adventures riding bare back with no bridle. Following her high school graduation she left for Basic Training at Ft. McClellan, AL. She completed her Advanced Individual Training (AIT) at Ft. Gordon, GA., graduated as a distinguished honor graduate, and served in the Army National Guard from 1987-1991 where she performed her duties in Signal Communications as a Tactical Telecommunication Operator, which was later transitioned to a Mobile Subscriber Equipment Operator, and maintained a security clearance. In 1990 her unit was called up in support of Operation Desert Storm, but never deployed.

Then she went on active duty in Army Aviation from 1991-1995. Her primary duties were as an Avionics Mechanic working on numerous aircraft within the Army, to include the CH-47 Chinook. She served one tour of duty overseas in South Korea at Camp Humphreys. During her time in South Korea, she spent a week at the Cheju Do Trainining Center, rock climbing, and rappelling. Once she returned to the states, she was stationed at Ft. Polk, LA and Ft. Hood, TX, maintained a security clearance, and obtained special skill identifiers for specific work assignments. After she was honorably discharged she continued to serve as an Army wife, voluntarily working alongside other wives in coordinating for the overall wellbeing of families, planning activities, and addressing critical needs to include military funerals. 

Once her husband retired his service to the military, his desire was to remain in aviation, while she engaged in the education sector, completed a Bachelor's degree in Computer Programming, and a dual Master's degree in Human Resources Development and Computer Resources and Information Management. She worked as an Adjunct Professor teaching Adult Education classes in GED, College and Career Transitions, ESL, and Citizenship classes. In 2019 she took steps to actively reengage with the veteran community as a volunteer with GallantFew. Through this process she was able to successfully locate a former veteran she served with in Ft. Hood, TX. 

In 2020 she planned to focus to work independently as a writer, Morgan Trails, LLC, to capture the many lost stories of military veterans so they may leave a legacy to their family. However, unforeseen circumstances during 2020, forced her to 'flip the deck', and engage the veteran community in her local area. She has been married to her husband, an Army Aviation veteran, since 1994, has two adult children, and one grandchild. 

Kelly Current  was born in Garland, Texas on Super Bowl Sunday. She lived most of her childhood in Iowa, but graduated from Berkner High School in Richardson, Texas.  She Joined the Army following the 9/11 attacks, deployed overseas to South Korea at Camp Stanley for 15 months, and two tours in Iraq that earned her spurs and combat veteran status. She enlisted as a petroleum specialist and thankfully was placed in aviation with 571st Medivac Unit. 

After four years of honorable service, she decided to pursue her dream of cooking. She attended The Culinary Institute of America in New York. She cooked at a yacht club for a couple years then chose Texas Woman’s University to continue her schooling to become a Registered Dietitian. She now works as a Clinical Nutrition Manager, RDN LD, at Hunt Regional Hospital, in Greenville, TX. She wants nothing more than to help make members of the community and world, happy, healthy individuals. She is blessed to be living and loving life everyday with her sweetheart and her daughter. They have a rescue dog, Jack, and a cat named Garfield. She is so thrilled to be able to continue her mission of helping others through Twin Rotors Mission.

Emily Brown was born and raised in Pennsylvania. She spent her younger years riding and showing horses. Her father served in the Army, and she grew up listening to war stories told by her grandfather. Following high school, she took a two-year break before returning to college to attend nursing school. She graduated as an LPN in 2007. She spent the next several years in nursing taking care of pediatric patients. In 2009 she met her husband, a veteran of the United States Marine Corps, who deployed in support of the Global War on Terrorism and the Iraqi Campaign. They moved to Texas in 2014 shortly after adding two girls to the family. Her husband, Matt, started working with horses shortly after.  In 2014 she began a career as a psychiatric nurse at Glen Oaks Hospital in Greenville, TX. She has continued in the Psychiatric field ever since in one capacity or another ever since.

The family returned to Pennsylvania in 2019 where they decided the winters were too much. So they went back to Texas in 2021, and started back up with horses. At this time they found Twin Rotors Mission in which they began attending Equine Therapy sessions. She is thrilled to be a part of such a wonderful organization and give back to those who gave.

Ivy Pitts has been  employed as a professional firefighter for over 19 years, in addition to volunteering with the fire department in her home community of Campbell, TX. Ivy felt led to serve with Twin Rotors Mission because her husband, Joel, is an Army veteran who served 4 years as a signal analyst from 1996-2000. Joel currently works for Greenville ISD as a Step Instructor at the High School.

Each sitting and elected board member must have a desire to contribute to the overall purposes and objectives of the organization with their unique skills and abilities.  All sitting military veteran directors must have a valid DD214, or DD215, been honorably discharged from service, and agree to volunteer their time for their service on the board.
