My name is William Sheehan, and I’m a high school senior. A lot of who I am comes from the things I love most, including flying, being outside, taking photos, making videos, and working on cars and trucks. Aviation has become a huge part of my life, and I spend a lot of time training as a student pilot and working toward my future as a pilot.Because I spend so much of my time focused on goals and the future, I often find myself letting life pass by without fully appreciating it. That is one of the reasons I got into photography. It helps me slow down and pay attention to the things around me. Photography reminds me that life is something to be experienced and enjoyed, not just spent thinking about what's next.
