Maria Fe Diden

Maria Fe “Ayen” Diden was born on the beautiful island of the Philippines and made a life-changing move to the United States. That journey led to proudly serving the United States Air Force. She began her career in Knowledge Management in 2003. After 20 years, she retired as an Inspector General under the Complaints Resolution Program. Throughout her military career, she had the honor of being stationed in North Carolina, completing two tours in Germany, and ended at Nevada. Not only that, she deployed to Qatar and Jordan. Each assignment brought unique challenges and unforgettable experiences that shaped who she is today.

Ayen is deeply committed to helping her fellow service members. Her passion shines through in everything she does—whether it’s offering guidance, sharing knowledge, or simply being a supportive presence. Ayen’s mission is to educate, support, and empower veterans as they navigate their journey toward the benefits they deserve. It’s truly an honor for her to connect with you and walk alongside you every step of the way.

In her free time, she enjoys spending time at home with her family and eating various cuisines. Most importantly, her favorite food is a Filipino dish called pork sinigang (pork sour soup)… Yummy!
