I obtained my fixed wing pilot rating in 1999 and soon after pursued all my rotor wing ratings. This direction give me more freedom to continue my passion of flight all while pursuing a commercial job that allowed better continuity with my growing family (The rotor wing jobs allowed more time to remain close to home with limited travel while my children were young). Now that my children are grown and my ability to travel is no longer restricted, I am excited to pursue my life long passion of joining the commercial airline industry.
