I am a Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) and aerospace professional with over eight years of experience in defense systems, flight operations, and aircrew instruction. My career spans both manned flight training and complex unmanned aviation, giving me a deep foundation in airspace integration, operational safety, and mission leadership.
Throughout my time in the defense industry, I have logged over 3,000 hours of Crew Resource Management (CRM) experience operating unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) across diverse international airspaces overseas. Working in high-stakes environments, I have specialized in multi-crew coordination, tactical risk mitigation, and navigating complex regulatory compliance.
Driven by a commitment to airmanship and operational excellence, I leverage my background in defense and civil aviation to train high-performing aviators, refine standard operating procedures, and execute complex aerospace missions.
