Airline Transport Pilot with over 1,600 total flight hours and a professional aviation background built through military service, leadership, and operational excellence. My experience includes multi-crew turbine operations, fixed-wing flying, and more than 23 years of service as a U.S. Army Aviation Officer, retiring at the rank of Major.

For over a decade, I served as a MEDEVAC pilot, where sound judgment, crew coordination, mission execution, and calm decision-making under pressure were essential on every flight. I also held command positions responsible for personnel development, training, maintenance oversight, risk management, and organizational readiness.

Beyond technical qualifications, I bring a leadership style grounded in professionalism, accountability, and teamwork. I am passionate about mentoring others, continuous improvement, and helping build strong flight departments and positive cockpit cultures. I understand that successful airline operations rely not only on skill in the cockpit, but also communication, adaptability, and a commitment to delivering a safe and dependable passenger experience.

I have continued investing in professional growth through aviation, business, and airport management studies, consistently achieving top academic performance while expanding my knowledge of airline operations, finance, airport systems, and aviation security.

I am seeking an opportunity to contribute to a safety-focused airline where experience, leadership, and a service mindset are valued, while continuing to grow as a professional aviator and teammate.
