22 years old and a Boeing 737 Pilot…can’t quite believe the words I’m writing. It doesn’t feel real and I don’t expect it will for a while. God is Great, I am so blessed for His blessings bestowed on me and for my family and friends who have helped me reach this point. Being able to celebrate this moment with my mum who went through so much these last years makes it all the more meaningful. A special thanks to Blake Stanley BSc (Hons) AMRAeS , Jakub Reszka and Gary Jackson MBE who are excellent instructors I had the privilege of being taught by! For anyone doubtful of a career as a pilot; if the training seems too expensive, or if the obstacles are so many, never lose sight of the end goal and in time you’ll achieve it. No obstacle is too high and no dream is unreachable; as an instructor once told me “discipline beats talent every single time”. EI-DPN 🇮🇪 BASE TRAINING: 02/04/2026
