30 years flying experience. Former Army and USAF Aviator. CFI. I bring decades of distinguished military and civilian aviation experience to the role. A U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force-trained pilot, I retired as a Lieutenant Colonel from the USAF after flying a wide range of military aircraft including the OH-58, UH-1, AH-1F, RC-12, C-12, and C-130. My extensive flight credentials include multiple type ratings such as the BE-400, MU-300, C500, C525S, and C-650, reflecting my versatility across both rotary and fixed-wing platforms. With a deep commitment to aviation excellence and mentorship, I now lead the next generation of pilots with the same precision and professionalism that defined my military career.
