Mac Air frozen on Blue Screen at Startup

Went to start up my computer this morning and my Mac Air continues to freeze on the blue screen during startup. I can hear the startup sound, and the caps lock light is on, the Apple logo light is on, and there is no spinning sundial. I have tried to reset NVRAM several times but with same results. I have never had troubles with this computer in the past, purchased in 2015. Any suggestions out there?

After reviewing your post, it sounds like your MacBook Air won't finish starting up. I would recommend you read these articles, they may be able to help troubleshoot the issue. ​

Try safe mode if your Mac doesn't finish starting up

You might see slight differences in startup screens or sequences mentioned in this article, depending on the model of your Mac, the version of OS X and firmware your Mac has, and which startup options you've selected. For example:

The background at any stage of the startup process can be blue, black, or gray.
