ABOUT ME
I find that I hold myself to standards that are very high and I am
proud of what I have achieved in school., I have lettered in
academics and I have also completed my first season of cross
country and have learned a lot about dedication from my coach
and teammates. AFJROTC is also a large part of my life, I am
always stepping up to fulfill whatever role my commanders need
me to so that my team is the best it can be. I am willing to do
jobs no one else wants to do such as filing mountains of
paperwork and being there for my commanders even if called
upon last minute. I have recognized the value in hard work and
getting things done. I have worked hard to become a glider pilot;
with only three years of experience I am always learning and
have realized I will most likely never stop learning. The
challenges I face as a pilot truly separate me from a typical high
schoolers life. I have learned to make better decisions and flying
allows me to apply math and science lessons in real life. Being a
pilot brings a unique perspective to my life in developing my
situational awareness and decisiveness both of which I believe to
be qualities of a great leader.
