I have had an interest in aviation since my dad had built and flown several homebuilt aircraft. Last summer I was able to ride in a Van’s Aircraft RV-6. (A short video clip is on the Activities page.) From an early age I have had the privilege of visiting Stennis Space Center no less than 8 times, Johnson Space Center twice, and most recently Kennedy Space Center. I was able to attend a summer camp at Stennis as a high school student sparking an interest in programming, thus CAD is one of my favorite areas of mechanical engineering. I am proud of my 988 hrs of community service and I am a patriot with unwavering support for our military. I would be pleased to work for a company that holds similar values of giving back to the community and supporting military families and veterans. 

​
