Ariel Tweto Career
Ariel’s career as an actress began at a young age when she appeared in the TV show “Wipeout”. She became famous in an incident in which she asks about a pole she cannot see yet it is right in front of her. The interest shown by audiences in the young girl leads the directors to approach the Tweto family to do a reality show about their lives, deep in the Alaskan wilderness. Her father, Jim, is skeptical but gives the OK for the cameras to roll at his workplace. As a bush pilot, he still runs his aviation company known as Era Alaska.
The reality show “Flying Wild Alaska” by Discovery Channel was an instant hit, as it brought into sharp focus the challenges the Tweto family face as they run their aviation business. To many Americans, the challenge of living in an environment that reminds one of the early days Wild West is riveting. The human battle against sometimes cruel nature makes fans celebrate with the Twetos’ in their triumphs, and sympathize with them in their losses. With Jim in the bush pilot’s seat and his wife Ferno managing things on the ground, the family is never short of action. In the midst of this is Ariel’s upbeat character.
Ariel hosted the TV series” Native Shorts” for the Sundance Institute in 2013, as well as the2013/ 2014 Miss USA, Alaska chapter, pageant. She has also been a guest on ”The Late Show” with Craig Ferguson. Ariel has also produced a number of shows such as the short film, “Francis” (2010),” Flying Again” – her big-screen debut in 2016, and “The Pipeline” (2018).
With Ariel’s parents, Jim and Ferno both being pilots, it was only natural that Ariel took an interest in flying from an early age. The 2011 to 2012 season of “Flying Alaska” follows Ariel’s training as a pilot, ultimately earning her pilot’s license in April 2012. She later takes over the running of the family’s flying business on the retirement of her father.
In 2016, Ariel starred in the documentary dubbed “Flying Again” created by J. Edward Ellis, which follows eight pilots who have gone out of shape, and who are on their way to sharpening their skills and becoming pilots once again. She was among the pilots featured in the show. Most recently a series called “True Alaska” has debuted – let’s see if it lives up to its title.
Married, Boyfriend, and Marriage
When it comes to her personal life and especially her love life, Ariel has been very private and media-shy. Interest in her love life peaked in one of her interviews when she revealed that she had never been kissed, which earned her the nickname Kissaholic. This episode that charmed the audience, and later came to be known as “The Kissing Episode”. At one point, there was speculation that she and her flying instructor were dating, however, she cleared the air saying that she regarded him as a brother and nothing more.
So at present, Ariel is still single, but is very active on Instagram, having over 30,000 followers, on which she regularly posts pictures of her adventures and holidays for her fans to enjoy.
