Nailah Blake | Senior Media Specialist

Nailah got her start in aviation through plane spotting in 2019, creating an Instagram account to share her photos and love of aviation with others. She began further exploring aviation through flight simulation, and volunteering with the EAA Young Eagles program here at San Carlos.

In 2023, Nailah was awarded the Upwind Summer Scholarship, which allowed her to earn her Private Pilot’s License. Wanting to stay involved with the Flight Center, Nailah chose to join the media team, putting her photography and content creation skills to use.

Currently, Nailah is double majoring in History and African-American studies at UC Davis, while continuing to fly on the side, aiming to become an airline pilot in the future. Outside of aviation, Nailah loves geography, history, music, photography, and sports.
