KYLE STEWART
Fort Worth
Summary
I am a 34-year-old Texas native, Army Veteran and father of two young boys (6 & 7). When I left the army, I spent time as a stay-at-home father, focusing on my family. After a few years of that, I decided it was time to prioritize my career and go back to school. My father and grandfather both made highly successful careers in aviation, and I am looking to follow in their footsteps, as I had a great childhood and I want nothing more than to provide the same for my boys. I enjoy working with my hands and find it to be very rewarding. I thrive under challenging circumstances and welcome the opportunity to put my skills to use. Thank you for your consideration of my application.
