Hi everyone, I am 37 from Miami, Florida. I have dreamed of working in Space since I was a kid, but it took me a long time to get where I wanted to get to. But lately been having difficulties and been in a depression wanting to get out of this situation and be in prosperity.

It wasn't till I got to Embry-Riddle where I was fascinated again by Aerospace and since completing my master's degree in M.S. in Aeronautics specializing in Space Operations. I am applying for the Space Sector, but nothing has come up which makes me worried that what has happened. I had my resumes reviewed multiple of times by professionals and all and still nothing. Which is worrying me and currently working in retail and have been for the last 15 years and I am tired of it. Want to move on from Retail and go for Aerospace/ Defense (Space Sector).

I have applied for multiple NASA contractors and keep getting rejected which is making me reconsider of my life and worried on where am I going to go? And questioning to myself do I have a future.

I have a desire to work for NASA's Artemis program (Space Launch System), but I am open to start with DoD Space if that is possible.

Also seeing Destin's videos have inspired me to go for more engineering and so I want to go for Aerospace Engineering. I know there are challenges to it, I am well aware of it. But darn it I want to do it. I am fascinated by aircraft, spacecraft, rockets and want to make things work. By the way I love the video of Destin with Tory Bruno for the ULA Vulcan centaur launch.

So, I figured that maybe it's time for me to go back to university. So, the question remains which university should I go to and what would be the results for me to join NASA Artemis program and other NASA Space Programs and DoD Space.

I also realize I do need a mentor but having a hard time looking for one for Space. And I do need coaching, but I saw some of them are so expensive for me as a recent grad. I don't know how I am going to pull this off.

I don't know if this is the right place to put. I hope Destin reads this and I hope if there is a way to talk to him about it. I really need help to get me out of this nightmare I am facing. I wake up worried of my life thinking I don't have a future. It's a question I keep asking myself. Do I have a future?

Anyways I am deeply sorry about this, it's just I am deeply concerned, and I am 37, wanting to go back to university but having financial hurdles on doing so.
