Growing up in Hampton,VA placed me in the center of the military aviation world. I was around airplanes constantly, and being woken up by an F-15 or F-22 protecting the skies of Virginia was not uncommon. This atmosphere caused me to pursue a career in aviation, and in August 2011 I received my private pilots license after training at the Langley AFB. Another one of my major interest is meteorology. Luckily for me, both of these paths go together pretty well.
Currently I am studying Meteorology at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. I plan to persue my flying career by getting my instrument license and then move on into other types of flying while working with a local broadcast station for weather broadcasts or with one of NOAA's National Weather Service (NWS) offices around the country, preferably in my home state of Virginia in the tidewater region.
