Diversity Speaker & Performance Series  - Inclusivity in Instructor Activities
Olga Custodio
America’s First Latina Fighter Pilot & STEM Advocate

“If you want something to happen, you must make it happen, because if you really don't want it, it's not going to happen without you. You can't make other people do things for you. You can't wait for people to come and give it to you. You must go out and get it.” 

In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, Olga E. Custodio, a trailblazing Latina who shattered gender stereotypes and achieved numerous milestones in the aviation industry, will present during STCC’s Speaker Event Series. From becoming the first Latina to complete U.S. Air Force Undergraduate Pilot Training to her distinguished career as a military pilot and commercial airline captain, Olga's story exemplifies the power of perseverance and determination. Through her pioneering efforts, she has not only realized her own dreams, but also become a mentor and advocate, inspiring the next generation, especially women, to pursue their aspirations in aviation and beyond.
