"I will be forever grateful and honored to be a Brian LaViolette Scholarship recipient. Brian's values are never not with me, and I am extremely proud to have a small part in his legacy.
Next semester, I will be the AFROTC Cadet Wing Commander at the Marquette Detachment. I will be in charge of over 50 cadets and their training for 14 weeks...I am nervous, because I want to do a good job, but mostly excited.
As for classes, I am only two semesters away from my bachelors in Electrical Engineering. I was just inducted into the Honors Electrical Engineering Society, and won outstanding junior electrical engineer of the semester in the spring. Over the next two semesters, I will be working on a senior design project with NASA - creating a lunar rover with some extremely niche capabilities.
In May, I will commission as a Second Lieutenant in the Air Force or Space Force...hopefully the Space Force. I also applied for the in-service master's program, I am hoping to continue my education with Electrical Engineering."
