I was born and raised in Cincinnati Ohio. I’m the first pilot of my family and friends. I started to purse this career after taking a discover flight at an airport near my home in 2021 and never looked back. Aviation became more than just a hobby it became my lifestyle. Once I finished my private pilot license I decided to enroll in ATP Flight School’s Career Pilot Program. After completing the program, I decided it was time for me to go on my own adventure and moved to Florida to find my current job as a certified flight instructor. I am the type of person that wants to work for a company that I can stay at and climb internally within the company. When I first arrived at Kingsky Flight Academy it was a relatively small operation compared to the school I attended. Since I have been here, I have gotten to watch the company grow for 13 instructors to over 70 and still growing. Aswell as I have gotten the opportunity to grow within the company becoming a check instructor for our 141 program. I also have the privilege of being a Team leader where I guide and assist newer instructors in their journey as CFIs. As much as I enjoy flight instruction it was never my end goal. I’m looking forward to my next adventure.
