Professional pilot and CFII with experience in flight instruction, aircraft ferry and delivery operations, and a strong foundation in aviation leadership and crew resource management. A graduate of Baylor University’s aviation program, I have built experience across a variety of aircraft while developing a reputation for professionalism, adaptability, and strong attention to detail.

My experience as a flight instructor has strengthened my communication, decision-making, and ability to work effectively with pilots of varying experience levels. I also have experience ferrying and delivering new and lightly used aircraft, providing valuable exposure to a wide range of aircraft, avionics, and operating environments.

I am passionate about aviation and continually looking for opportunities to expand my experience, learn from experienced professionals, and contribute to a team committed to safe and professional flight operations.
