Emma Wood Turek graduated from Davidson in 2019 and has since gone on to have a successful career in the military.
She graduated from the Air Force Academy in 2023 and is working toward her master’s in Aerospace Engineering at Texas A&M University. She is currently slated to attend intelligence school upon completion of her degree but hopes to become a pilot.
Emma said Hilliard City Schools focus on STEM career fields more than prepared her for life post-high school.
“Davidson has great pre-engineering, physics and math programs, which helped me advance to where I am today,” she said.
She was especially influenced by math and pre-engineering teacher Mr. Kuch and science teacher Mr. Herring.
