While 2023 saw the closest thing to a “return to normalcy” since the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, actual COVID numbers and hospitalizations were reported to be rising for the first few months of the year before dropping to unprecedented lows.

I would like to thank the Homer Kachemak Rotary Club for the generous scholarship I have received. I will be attending Southern Utah University this fall to study aviation. I am very passionate about flying and I’ve already begun flight training here in Homer to get my private pilot license this summer. My ultimate goal is to be an airline pilot and travel the world.
