👋 About Me 👋
I started college in 2021 and originally had my eyes set on becoming a doctor. After I realized that wasn't for me, I started studying business and finance while working sales jobs during the summer. After selling Pest Control and an internship in finance, I decided to look into becoming a pilot. A couple of flights later, I was hooked and decided that making money while flying jets doesn't sound too bad! Subscribe to follow the journey!
