I am a passionate pilot and certified flight instructor with experience teaching private, instrument, and commercial pilots. I hold a multi-engine rating and have logged over 900 flight hours. Beyond aviation, I grew up on a campground, so the outdoors—camping, fishing, and working on my Jeep has always been a big part of my life. I’m excited to bring my love of flying and adventure to a pilot role with a team that shares my passion.
