Hi, I’m

VEDANT SANGHVI

Pilot
Cerritos,CA

Summary

Dear Hiring Manager, I am a 18 year old flight school student looking for a future in the aviation industry. I am in the process of obtaining my BSC Aeronautics from ERAU WorldWide, where I am minoring in Air Traffic Management. Expected to graduate in 2024, I am using all the time I have, as well as credits obtained from my pilot's licenses. I am devoted to my professional commitments, which can be attested to by my teaching staff at Garodia international in Mumbai.

In less than 7 consecutive months, I worked hard to obtain my PPL and IR certificates. On call at anytime, any day, I have the experience of working day/ night shifts at uncommon times. Never have I been late to any commitment, rather showing up for all my ground/ flight sessions at least 1 hour early to obtain regular flight briefings, weather updates and conducting a thorough preflight.

During my time training at Long Beach, I have had the privilege of interacting with multiple corporate and airline pilots who transitioned through the airport. This has allowed me to, at a young age, have a deep understanding of the field and the efforts involved behind keeping a smooth operation running.

As a hopeful member to your team, i can assure you that an opportunity provided to me will be used to it's greatest efficiency. I am a committed and a loyal member to any team I am affiliated with, not to mention a resourceful asset. I hope to be working with you in the near future!
