A former passionate Radio Talk Show host, author, lecturer, and historian who tells it like it is. As a former Washington insider, I connect the dots to issues in order to be better informed. I love politics, it gives me so many creative and interesting stories/plots to use in my movie screenplays and books. Today Ms. Kilbride is transitioning into a life coach and mentoring position to help those younger than she in order to help them gain perspective on their path and purpose in life. Mentoring can be in business, writing, finding your passion in life to help you be more successful in your endeavors, or just what direction to take in your relationship – with 40 years’ experience in life’s journey, Ms. Kilbride can help you figure out your own path and purpose. Ms. Kilbride is a seasoned professional who has achieved multiple levels of success in Washington, DC. While consulting and lobbying for the defense industry, she was instrumental in helping to determine and fulfill revenue requirements related to military and defense initiatives. Having grown up in a very strong New York military family, her passion and love for those who serve in uniform, lead her on a path to work closely with the United States Marine Corps, United States Army, United States Navy, and various veterans’ organizations throughout her career. Her expertise and extensive knowledge of the military gave her the advantage in leveraging government and private sector resources for programs to benefit those who serve in uniform, both on the streets at home and around the world.Throughout her career, Ms. Kilbride has been instrumental in helping various military and veteran’s organizations bring about changes with respect to national defense, national security and veterans benefit issues. Because of her involvement in over 300 political campaigns, she gained the respect of both political parties in Washington, DC. It was no wonder why she was invited to speak before both Congressional and Veterans Affairs Committees in support of national defense and veteran’s benefits/PTSD issues. Her reputation as a straight shooter gained her the privilege of receiving an invitation by the United States Marine Corps to join them as the first embedded media to deploy as a member of a unit as they entered Iraq. Ms. Kilbride currently resides in the Washington, DC Area where she relieves her stress by producing amazing artwork.
