“I am 18 years old and from Plattsburgh, New York. I go to Northwood for Hockey and am the Varsity Hockey team’s captain.
“Most people don’t know this about me, but I want to pursue becoming a commercial pilot. I want to fly for a commercial airline like Southwest or United Airlines.
“My motivation for this is from my father, who told me he would pursue becoming a commercial pilot if he could be where I am right now. This is because my dad sees his friend is working as a commercial pilot, and it seems like the best career to him.
“I found passion in this and am on my way to earning my wings, which symbolize the ability and license to fly an airplane.”
