Spaceflight Personal Statement
After college, I expect to build a successful engineering career in the spaceflight industry. As a resident of the Space Coast of Florida, for my entire life I have walked out into my backyard and watched countless rocket and space shuttle launches a mere 30 miles from where I stood. From a young age, I had fallen in love with NASA and it was my dream to work there. More recently, companies like SpaceX, Blue Origin, and others have caught my attention and shown me the exciting new world of commercial spaceflight, and the incredible potential of private entities in this field.
I am very fortunate that my interests line up almost perfectly with my skills, and the fact that there are so many opportunities in this field makes it a perfect fit.
I am certain that with a degree in aerospace engineering, and the passion that I have for the subject, I will be able to achieve success in the spaceflight industry. I have always been told that the most important factor on choosing a career is how much you care about the subject. In my case, I am already excited by simply imagining the possibilities. For this reason, I am confident in my ability to meet my post-college goals.
