From a young age, U.S. Air Force 2nd Lt. Madison Marsh had a love of science and a dream to be a pilot and astronaut. When she learned that she could further her ambitions by going to the Air Force Academy, she started working toward becoming a cadet, even earning her civilian pilot's license at 17 years old. As the first active-duty service member to earn the Miss America crown, Marsh is using her national platform to help dispel stereotypes and empower America’s youth to realize their dreams and true potential through aviation.
