I began pursuing my dream career in aviation when I was 20 years old, and over the past 5 years I met the goals I set for myself to see that dream come true. Although I was successful at every stage of this journey, I found that my aspirations had changed and though I continued, I began pursuing my degree in Management Information Systems at the University of South Florida at St. Petersburg. While studying there, I found a new passion in the concepts and themes being taught and knew that this was the path I wanted to move forward with.Along the way I have learned many things and discovered many talents I would not have know otherwise. These skills include improved decision making, adaptability, resource management, and an expansion upon my managerial experience. In additional while flight instructing I acquired a fantastic ability to transfer knowledge effectively. The are things I would likely never have learned had I not ventured into aviation.With my sights now set on a career in technology, I plan to continue the same work ethic that made me so successful as a pilot. With the unique skillset I have acquired, I have no doubt that I will be able to overcome any goals I set for myself or those set by others.
