My name is Daniel Santora, I am 26 years old, and I am a student in the A&P program at Teterboro School of Aeronautics. At this time in the program, I am in my second block, and am very much enjoying my time at the school. In my prior block, I had received perfect attendance and academic honor awards. I find myself studying harder because I am interested in learning what the aviation industry is all about. Before enrolling in the school, I was working at a small engine repair/bicycle shop as the manager and had been doing it for a few years.
I had gotten to a point in my life where I knew I didn't want to be fixing mopeds, lawn equipment and bicycles for my whole career. I am in school to try to get the most out of what the instructors know, and hopefully lead on to a good career down the road. I find everyday really exciting at school because of the different people I meet, and the different aviation equipment and materials that we see.
