I won the 2025 GlobalAir.com Aviation Scholarship! – What this means for you

Hello everyone,

I’m thrilled to share some big news: I’ve been selected as a recipient of the 2025 Calvin L. Carrithers Aviation Scholarship from GlobalAir.com !

This opportunity means a lot to me—and to you, because as part of the scholarship, I’ll be bringing you along on my journey through flight training, aviation maintenance, business, school, and aviation life every week. Here’s what this scholarship is, what it means, and what you can expect from my blog from here on out.

What does that mean for you?

Each week I’ll be posting updates and what I’m learning along the way. I’ll also share tips, resources, and some of the highs and lows of this journey. Think of it as a behind-the-scenes look at what it’s really like to be a student of aviation, business, and everything in between.

For me, this is a chance to grow not only as a student of aviation, but also as a communicator, while connecting with other students, pilots, and anyone curious about aviation.

Thanks for reading and joining me on this adventure. My first real update will be up soon

-let’s see where this journey takes us!
