Who inspires you: My daughter, Taylin. She inspires me to make a better life for me and her. I want to afford her the opportunities that I was not able to have.
Where do you see yourself in 10 years: In 10 years, if I am not in the military anymore, I see myself pursuing a career as a fire fighter. I have always been inspired by the work they do. I also want to move down south to Virginia and should have at least five kids by then.

Senior Airman Tanaj Stevenson is a part of the travel team for Dover Air Force Base, Del. He meticulously audits and assists over 850 members with completing their Defense Travel System travel voucher when returning from their deployments. He also stops deployment-related entitlements to prevent overpayments; he is the go-to man for this process. He quickly became proficient in the Dover AFB Government Travel Card Program, in which he beat the Air Mobility Command goal by more than two percent with a 99.91 percent for on-time GTC payment. Furthermore, Stevenson has been selected as the 436th Comptroller Squadron Star-Performer twice during his tenure here. Stevenson is truly deserving of being the Airman of the Week.
