I’m a first‑generation pilot and University of North Dakota alum with a strong foundation in leadership, safety, and professional aviation training. During my time at UND, I served in leadership roles with Women in Aviation and the Latino Pilots Association, volunteered at industry events, supported research initiatives, and mentored developing pilots. These experiences shaped my commitment to service, representation, and continuous improvement within the aviation community.

I currently hold an R‑ATP certificate with a CL‑65 type rating and have accumulated SIC turbine time in the CRJ series, where I’ve managed holding, diversions, and near DOT‑3 events with professionalism and composure. My background also includes experience as a CFI, phlebotomist, and lifeguard— roles that strengthened my situational awareness, communication, and ability to perform reliably in high‑stakes, safety‑sensitive environments. I’m driven by integrity, teamwork, and a deep respect for the responsibility that comes with this profession. I’m committed to growing as a pilot while contributing positively to every team I’m part of.
