Alumni Spotlight: Dakota Randazzo ’24

Just two years after earning her degrees in English and Spanish, Dakota Randazzo ’24 has taken her love of learning, travel, and connection to new heights…literally.

Dakota is now training full time in San Diego to become a commercial airline pilot, recently completing one of aviation’s biggest milestones: her first solo flight. As she shared, “Pretty much the second I held the yoke and assisted in lifting the plane into the air, I knew this was what I wanted to do.”

Her journey is a powerful reminder that career paths aren’t always linear, and that curiosity, courage, and determination can lead to extraordinary opportunities. Dakota approaches aviation with the same passion she once brought to studying languages, saying, “It feels like I’ve simply shifted from being a student of English and Spanish to a student of flying.”

We are so proud of Dakota’s drive, resilience, and willingness to embrace new challenges. She embodies the spirit of Molloy: bold, curious, and ready to soar.

Congratulations, Dakota! Your Molloy family is cheering you on as you reach new heights!
