"I studied engineering for the same reason many people do - I wanted to learn how things 'worked'. After graduating, I decided to pursue my Private Pilot's License and now I'm looking to move into a position in the aerospace industry. What excites me about this design engineer position in General Aviation is the opportunity to develop and improve a product I will actually use. It combines my interest in engineering and my passion for flying in an exciting way."
