Daniela Cisternas

Im Daniela Cisternas, a Chilean immigrant in Canada, Private Pilot, engineer, content creator, and analog astronaut crew. My passion lies in aviation and space exploration, and Im committed to using my platform to make these fields more accessible to diverse communities. Through my immigrant journey, Ive built a community of 75K followers who see their own hopes reflected in my story. I inspire others to pursue their dreams, whether moving abroad, finding purpose, or achieving goals once thought impossible. If I can become a pilot and an analog astronaut, so can they. Being an immigrant means living in-between: 50% from one place, 50% from another, and never fully enough in either. It takes resilience to adapt, but that in-betweenness is also a unique strength. I would be honored to represent this multicultural community, so that when I reach space, others who share my background can see themselves in me.
