Corrina Bartels embodies the Air Force core values. Service before self is how she lives her life and what she uses to guide her work as an advocate for our veterans. As a Veteran herself, Corrina served faithfully for two decades in the Nebraska Air National Guard and Air Force Reserves before retiring in early 2023. Her military service included a deployment to Iraq when her son was only two years old. Now she serves as a Case Manager at Berry Law.
“I have a heart for service. Every Veteran’s story is different, but as a Veteran, I understand what it means to leave your family to serve your country.”
Corrina understands what our service members face like few others, having served as both an enlisted troop and an officer. She enlisted in 2003. In 2010, she was awarded the Headquarters Air Force A2 Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance Award for Air Reserve Command Non-Commissioned Officer of the Year, which recognizes a reserve intelligence professional at the national level. Corrina was commissioned in 2012 and retired as a Captain.
Bartels approaches her clients with empathy, compassion, and understanding, along with the belief that Veterans deserve the benefits they’ve earned. A true fighter, Corrina will stop at nothing to secure what’s fair.
“It can be such a frustrating process and one that takes a lot of time. By having someone else advocate for them, clients don’t have to take on that frustration. Veterans have bravely and tirelessly fought for their country. As a case manager, I want them to know that they have someone fighting for them.”
Corrina holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln. She spends her free time with her family/friends and enjoys sharing faith and fellowship with her church family. Corrina is an active member of the American Legion Post 32 in Papillion, Nebraska and volunteers her time serving the homeless at a local shelter and in the nursery at her church. She can also be found outdoors appreciating any activity involving nature.
