63-year-old aviation professional, proud father of three incredible children, and husband to an amazing woman who has been my greatest blessing. Based in Central Florida, we enjoy the ocean and everything that comes with coastal living.
As I approach retirement from a rewarding career with a Part 121 airline, I am exploring opportunities where my experience, professionalism, and skill set can continue to provide value in a post-121 role. I bring decades of industry knowledge, dedication, and a strong work ethic, and I look forward to contributing in a meaningful way to the right organization.
