USMMA - 2001 - From Cornfields in Indiana to Tankers in Alaska

This episode features Angelina Fuschetto, a 2001 graduate from the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, located in Kings Point NY. Angelina, or Angie, or… FU to those that went to school with her… shares all about her journey from the cornfields of Indiana to working with tankers in Alaska. If you don’t know much about Kings Point and the life of a merchant mariner, Angie’s story will definitely give you some great insight. And for transparency, I should mention that Angie was actually a first class midshipman (or senior) at Kings Point when I was a plebe (or freshman). In fact, she was my platoon commander - and while I don’t think this impacted the interview in any way - I just thought you should know. Enjoy the show!
