Chelsea's Story

My passion is traveling.

I discovered my passion when I would hop into a car and just roam around the city, but traveling the city wasn't enough. I wanted to travel the world and country. The view from the window would be the best view. Ever since then I knew that I would love to discover new places. Traveling by car limited all my views -- I wanted to get on a plane. I remember when my mom first told me we were going to Guatemala. I was so excited! I finally had the chance to view everything from the airplane’s window. The first time I stepped onto an airplane felt so amazing. I had to sit on the seat with a window to be able to look at the buildings and clouds. My adrenaline increased when it started to take off. The tumbling of the plane would excite me, then the smoothness would be so calming. Being on the plane helped me understand my passion and cement my belief in that I need to follow my passion because it is what truly makes me happy.

I’ve always wanted to view to the world around me. California Airways Aerocamp will help me explore my passion and give me that chance of seeing if this is what I want to be involved with in the future. This interests me because I get the perspective of those who fly airplanes. This also interests me because I love getting the chance to learn new things everyday. This program will teach me the basics of an airplane and it will develop my knowledge on planes.

A Note from Ms. Kean, Chelsea's Mentor


Chelsea is a young scholar with a tremendous amount of potential. She is curious and passionate about science, but hasn't had a great deal of opportunity to explore them yet outside of school. When she has the opportunity she is able to apply innovative thinking to science dilemmas and excel. She has been a stand-out student in our new project-based learning Physics course, completing the planning and design of a collaborate lamp-building project. She is a young person who is wise, mature, but who also will benefit greatly from the opportunity to see the world of medicine and science in action.

Chelsea is incredibly enthusiastic about attending this program. She is enthusiastic about attending college and seeking experiences that help her gain perspective on academics and potential majors. She will bring an ethic of hard work and a spirit of curiosity. She has talked of being excited to learn more about health care applications and day to day experiences of practitioners. These are the invaluable opportunities that would greatly benefit a scholar like Chelsea and her budding interest.
