Angelo was born and raised in Haiti. Growing up through some of the country’s’ toughest times, Angelo developed a passion that would eventually change his life. He explained, “I lived through all the wars and I’ve seen united nations come in and try to help. There would be helicopters that fly like 15 feet above our house. I used to sit on the roof watching helicopters and I would say, yeah I’m going to do this.” Angelo Senat and his family moved to Brooklyn, New York in 1995. Flatbush to be exact. He was faced with the task of new schools and a new language, but never lost sight of his goal to fly. Ten years later, things would finally begin to take off for Angelo. 
I caught up with Angelo Senat at his Wall St. office in New York City. The building certainly reflected the regal ambiance of his business. Angelo is a graduate of Sussex CC and earned his aviation credentials from Ventura Flight School. Not only is he a licensed pilot, but Angelo is also the President and Director of Operations of a Private Jet company, Royal Jets. Overseeing a talented staff of 15 at the young age of 28. With the business calculating somewhere around a $20 million dollar valuation, Royal Jets has been the trusted airline of choice for many well known entertainers and executives. Just recently Royal Jets acquired a feller of citation CJ3 for the company’s operations and partnered with the Darrin Walls of the NY Jets and the Darin’s walls foundation to provide school supplies to under privilege kids in the Pittsburgh area. We are proud to present a young aviator navigating his way to the Forbes List in this week’s #ShineHard conversation.
