By age 7, Serenity Williams wholeheartedly knew she wanted to join the Navy. She’d do 100 pushups every day just for fun, spend time in a submarine or in a torpedo and be on a ship.
That love for the Navy was because of her mother Sherée Williams, a Navy Commander who’s been serving 25 years as an active duty officer while being a single parent.
Commander Williams – who exemplifies dominance and opportunity each time she puts on her uniform – is Serenity’s biggest role model.
“I’m living vicariously through her,” Serenity said. “I always have, and I always will.”
