¨I have many dreams. I dream that I can help this nation make the leap to the Jetson’s age, in terms of the intersection of drones and flying cars,¨ explains Missy Cummings, 46, a Ph.D. in Systems Engineering from the University of Virginia and one of the Navy’s first female fighter-pilots. ¨I hope to be an inspiration to young people to show them that engineering can actually span the arts and sciences, and is deeply rewarding and worth the investment. And I dream that I can do all this while raising a healthy and happy daughter as a single mother.¨
