My time at MSU Denver has amplified my passion for aviation in ways I could’ve never imagined. From taking simulator classes in air traffic control and student pilot classes I have logged several hours in fixed-wing aircraft. However, I recently had the opportunity to be PIC in a helicopter for the first time and it was like falling in love with aviation all over again. I have since been pursuing follow-up lessons to achieve a career as a professional helicopter pilot. Not only does my school degree signify my love for anything and everything aviation but I hope to use my passion to bring my degree and skills to their fullest potential to create a successful and bright future.
