Gabriel is a part of the Internship program this year. As a NASA intern, he’s been building a space rover and learning about acoustic dampening with his mentor, Kyle Zimmerle.

When the Intern Employment Specialist Jerry Armstrong learned about Gabriel’s desire to be a pilot, he tracked down local pilot Shawn George, a graduate of Shaw High School. Shawn took Gabriel up in his plane on August 20, 2021.
