From Blogging To Publishing - Flight Ink

I remember when Flight Ave. was officially started and thus recognized as a company back in 2011. We started with this blog in which we found our selves stuck on what to put on the "About Us" page. At that time I was simply a blogger, an aspiring journalist. My supervisor, a lovely young woman who also happen to be part of UCLA's blogging operations, headed our blog until her unfortunate resignation several months later. I was then left to take hold of our blogging and social media efforts. A young writer, seemingly clueless on where to take the blog and the image of the company for that matter. Diving into a pool without knowing how to swim. Ambition along with adrenaline was and still is rushing through my veins  I started to look forward with optimism as to where we could take our journalism operations as a company. 

Fast forward to 2012, I got the idea to start a magazine. But not just any magazine. A magazine dedicated to youth, young adults, young entrepreneurs, freelancers and business owners that would provide them with content that is useful, valuable, informative and relevant as well as advice, insights, resources and inspiration to help grow themselves, their talents, passions, goals and businesses. I came to the realization that this is a new generation of workers and business owners, that due to the shape of the modern work place and environment aren't willing to take the risks associated with business. We cant be the only ones from our generation who aspire to be great.

So it is my great pleasure to announce that we will begin work to bring this magazine to life. It will be based online and it will be free of charge. We will be saying farewell to our blog within the next 6 months. Though we will not forget where and how we as a company started.

Stay tuned.
