Hey all, My name is Haley Hofmann and I'm currently an aerospace engineering student at the Naval Academy. Before coming here, though, I enlisted in the Navy in 2018 as an aviation electrician's mate and served 2 years at HSM-41 in San Diego. I applied to USNA and then spent a year at the Naval Academy Prep School in Newport, RI, and now I'm here in Annapolis. I'll commission in 2025, and right now my goal is to commission as a Marine Corps pilot (though that is subject to change). I'm a part of the SWAT-C team here on the yard, and we train as small units (fire teams/squads) with drones and ground based autonomous vehicles. Right now, I'm working on my rifle skills and my drone flying skills. I enjoy reading and astronomy, and running is starting to grow on me. I'm really excited to be here and to connect with everyone, and to continue to learn and grow as I continue my journey towards a commission. Thanks for making this place so great. - Haley
