This summer I had the wonderful opportunity to serve as a mentor with the Robert B. Griffin Central Florida Chapter of the Black Pilots of America in their inaugural STEM Aviation Summer Camp. It was an unforgettable experience that I will cherish forever. Witnessing firsthand the next generation of aviators and engineers truly demonstrates the limitless potential and ingenuity of young minds shaping the future of aerospace, especially when they can absorb the wisdom from one of the greats, such as the groundbreaking Donnie Cochran. Without the guidance of Danny Fuqua, the President of the Robert B. Griffin Chapter of the Black Pilots of America, I would have never been able to be involved in such an amazing program. I want to thank my fellow mentors, our sponsors, and of course, the children, whose enthusiasm, curiosity, and boundless energy made this program so rewarding. Their eagerness to learn and grow truly makes our efforts worthwhile. Most of all, I want to thank God for giving me this opportunity to be a servant leader and for the chance to support, encourage, and empower His children on their journey.
