  Witness the emotional, dynamic, and riveting journey throughout the development of his flagship aerospace advocacy business with philanthropic values. His direct and indirect associations served as sources of strength. Read more about The Aerospace Professor and Taraji P. Henson, Tuskegee Airman General Benjamin O. Davis, Jr., Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm, Golden Frinks, The U.S. Air Force, The Haliwa-Saponi Tribe, Brooke Simpson (The Voice), Representative John D. Hall, William Earl “Bootsy” Collins, Oprah Winfrey, John Mellencamp, and Charlie Wilson. Remember to always “Look Above.” 
  The mantra of The Aerospace Professor’s brand is “Look Above” which means that each day, we should continuously strive to perform at least a level higher than we originally intended. Be excited about every day in your life! Seek strength in all that motivates you and work towards not only doing your best, but doing your very best! Challenge yourself by questioning what “Look Above” means for you each day. Be flexible and adapt, seeking to eliminate failure as an option, and remember to always "Look Above".

  In September 2017, Helen Calcutt's brother Matthew took his own life. He was 40 years old.
  '… the phone rang / and when I answered it / you'd killed / yourself, and that was the start / of you being dead.'
  This is the starting point of an astonishing new pamphlet of poems by Helen Calcutt. At times harrowing; at others hopeful – always deeply felt and beautifully realised. These poems display the poise and precision of a poet already at the height of her powers, writing the un-writable, weaving the terrible into something relatable and filled with the light of understanding.
  How do we survive the tumultuous presence of grief? How does the trauma of losing a loved one to suicide affect, our identity, our creativity, and our ability to love? How – in a world shattered by incomparable change and severe loss – do we build a life from the wreckage? Because we do.
  Somehow, we do.
