Becoming an airline pilot has been my dream for years, and I’m raising funds for myself so I can continue my flight training at Lake Elmo Aero in Minnesota. I’ve worked hard to make this happen, earned my Private Pilot License, and recently passed my Instrument Rating written exam. Now I’m ready for the next step, but I cannot move forward with flight training because of the cost.

I’m currently working two jobs, seven days a week, to support myself and save toward my aviation goals. Balancing that schedule while trying to continue training has been one of the hardest challenges I’ve faced. There are times when I feel physically and mentally exhausted, but I keep reminding myself why I started. I want to spend more time flying, learning, and becoming a better pilot, and I’m not ready to give up on something I’ve worked so hard to achieve.

Your support will help cover:

• Instrument training
• Commercial training
• CFI training
• CFII training
• Multi-Engine training
• Aircraft rental
• Flight instructor fees
• Additional flight hours
• Checkrides

Every contribution will help me keep moving forward in my training and take the next steps toward this career. If you’re able to donate, thank you. If you cannot donate, sharing my fundraiser would also help and mean a lot to me.

One day, I hope to look back on this journey from the cockpit of an airline. Thank you for believing in my dream and supporting my path to becoming an airline pilot.
