Nathan began his journey at HGTC by simply wanting to explore new careers. He discovered the Aviation Maintenance Program and quickly became not only interested but inspired!
For Nathan, working with airplanes is doing the impossible because everything in aviation is counter-intuitive. He explains that while it seems like it shouldn’t work, it does, and now he understands the physical and mathematical properties behind aviation.
Nathan chose HGTC because of the relationship with the Pittsburg Institute of Aeronautics. He will complete his associate’s degree in two more semesters and hopes to find a job that challenges him upon graduation. Nathan’s long term goals include becoming a college professor so he can continue to inspire others to learn.
His advice to fellow students is, “Never give up and never stop learning. Start today, and take full advantage of the tutors!”
Congratulations, Nathan for being chosen as HGTC’s October Spotlight Student!
