Mark Hamilton started his journey at Arlington High school almost 10 years ago in 2009. As a graduate of Arlington High School in 2013, Hamilton fondly remembers teachers that helped shape his future in the business world. “I loved Mrs. Bailey, and I wish everyone gets the opportunity to take her class.” He loved her class because it was a productive yet stress free environment.

After high school, Mark decided not to go pursue a traditional college route , and instead decided to pursue a vocational post secondary school, and quickly move into the career field. Hamilton went to Tennessee College of Applied Technology, earning his aircraft license through their Mechanics Program. He stated that trade school was for people willing to work, and for those who want to move on with their lives. That was a very big reason as to why Hamilton decided to go to trade school. Since then, Mark has began to advance his career.

Hamilton currently works for Skywest Airlines. His job allows him to travel the United States and he absolutely loves it, however it is not his dream job. Mark aspires to work for FedEx, the world’s leading express-distribution company. “FedEx is the best company you can work for in my field. They pay the best, along with allowing you to transfer to the location of your choice in the future.”

Mark Hamilton recently married his high school sweetheart Emma Galbraith. They currently live together in Clarksville, Tennessee, where they plan to buy their first house. Mark claims that she is the “best decision of his life,” and he cannot wait to continue their lives with one another.
