Max Smith - Cape Cod Community College

I don’t think anyone can really put into words what a crazy year it has been for everyone during this unique time. As most in the country, what I considered my daily norm has changed quite a bit. I have recently taken a break from school to try and get myself into a steady routine. With this break I have found myself transitioning my life down south to Tampa, FL where I am going to get a job and try and figure out what my next step is going to be. Although a big move and life change like this can be nerve-racking, I find myself more excited than anything else. There are so many questions I still need the answers to as far as my distant future and what I want to do moving forward but for now I’m happy navigating the world on my own and the adventures that will come with that. I hope to soon get back into the aviation world, this time as a hopefully soon-to-be pilot. My love for the aviation world will always be with me through everything, even if I step aside from it for now it will always be with me in my heart. Something that has also been with me through these crazy times has been the support from the wonderful folks of MVYouth and for that I continue to be and will always be forever grateful. Having this support during this past year or so has been life changing. Even in the most difficult of times knowing there are people out there supporting whatever I choose to do makes everything that was once difficult seem much easier. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you all for the support as I navigate the next stage of my life.
