I’m a corporate aviation pilot and international captain with experience across Part 91 and Part 135 operations, specializing in large-cabin Gulfstream aircraft and global flight operations.
Currently serving as a Gulfstream G550 Captain, I operate international flights and support flight planning, oversee our Web Manuals program, and manage our Domestic CPDLC operations—contributing to both daily execution and the broader infrastructure of the flight department.
I’ve accumulated nearly 5,000 hours of total flight time, including 3,650 hours as Pilot in Command and more than 2,300 hours of turbine experience. I’m typed in the Gulfstream G-V, Citation CE-680A, Learjet 60, HondaJet, and King Air 350i, with a background operating high-performance aircraft in demanding environments.
Leadership has been a consistent theme throughout my career. As a Check Airman and Captain, I evaluated pilot performance, ensured regulatory compliance, and maintained operational standards across a charter environment—while mentoring crews and reinforcing consistency across the operation.
My leadership foundation was built through aviation education. As a Lead Flight Instructor, I managed over 50 instructors and supported more than 200 students. I also taught Part 141 ground school courses, focusing on CRM, IFR operations, and turbine systems—developing a strong ability to communicate and train effectively.
These experiences shape how I lead today—focused on clear communication, strong crew coordination, and setting the standard both in the cockpit and across the operation.
In addition to flying, I founded FlightHired to give back to the aviation community. The platform helps low-time pilots understand the hiring landscape, access opportunities, and position themselves competitively early in their careers, while providing guidance as they transition into professional flying roles.
My focus is simple: operate at a high standard, lead from the front, and contribute to the next generation of pilots entering the industry.
