Name + Position: Jon Bohannon, Corporate Videographer

Interest in Aviation ✈️: My main interest has always been filmmaking and photography. When I started my job as a ramp agent 10 years ago at Piedmont, that kicked off my love for aviation. Since then, my different positions within the company have furthered that interest as I have gotten the opportunity to see many sides of the industry. Ultimately I landed in the Corporate Communications department as a videographer, which has allowed me to learn more about all departments within the company. As I continue to learn more, my interest in aviation continues to grow.

What do you LOVE about Piedmont? 💙 I love Piedmont because the company allows people to grow. From my beginning in the company on the ramp to where I am now, it's been a journey. Along the way, I've gotten to know a lot of people here within the company. When people say that Piedmont is a family, I think it rings true. I've met people here at Piedmont who have become close friends and I continue to keep in communication with other departments and build strong relationships. I just love that Piedmont encourages you to grow, not only within the company but as an individual.

Name + Position: Breyonna Spriggs, Airline Dispatcher

Interest in Aviation ✈️: I've always had an interest in aviation. I started as a flight attendant, and I got bit by the aviation bug. I worked as a flight attendant for Piedmont during the Dash 8’s era, and I enjoyed learning about the aircraft and the industry itself. I felt like there was more than just being a flight attendant.

That's when I transitioned to operations in the Philadelphia tower. I ended up coming to dispatch after seeing on a company website that they were sending people to school to obtain their dispatcher’s certification. I've been at Piedmont for 8 years.

What do you LOVE about Piedmont? 💙 I’d say it's a close-knit company and it's easy to advance within the company. Also, I will say everyone is welcoming.

I enjoy the opportunities to advance within the company. Once you join Piedmont, it's easy to move up, explore different options and continue to advance your career. This is one of my favorite things about working at Piedmont.
