Happy Holidays, 2021 was stressful from COVID to other factors like stress, this blog entry is mainly about the Future, the future as I see it from the day, I write this entry. As I am now in the 2nd semester the ISM path follows Mentor Visits and the Final product instead of the original work and Interviews. I do not have a concrete plan for the Final Product however I am lucky to have one mentor and I am planning some virtual sessions with him. Just to keep you up to speed, my mentor is Greg Krauland, Chief engineer of the XB-1 Boom supersonics’ demonstration aircraft. however, he can only do a virtual mentor visit once a month due to his work as well as distance as he lives and works in the Denver area. Due to this arrangement Coach Goff offered a solution, to have two mentors and as a result. For my -tentative- second mentor I would meet with him/her twice a month so my mentorship schedule would have three weeks with a mentor visit and one “free week”. However, like all events scudded during COVID this is subject to change however I feel that things are beginning to line up and that everything will be emplace for the second semester.
