I've been flying since 1999, when a friend invited me to join a flying club in college. I obtained my PPL in 2002 and my instrument and commercial tickets within two years. I've been flying with the Civil Air Patrol and AngelFlight. From 2002 to 2005, I owned a Cessna Cardinal RG and had the opportunity to take an advanced emergency procedure clinic with one of the designers of the airplane. In 2017, I decided to leave a career in healthcare and fly professionally. I obtained my CFI ticket a year later and am excited to be able to teach others about being a safe citizen of the aviation community. I have completed my CFII and MEI ratings and currently fly jets for an airline. I still love to teach and enjoy instructing students on the side. I can provide specialized transition training for Cardinal RGs as well as multi engine training for a DA-42. In addition, I provide all levels of instruction for private through the multiple flight instructor ratings. I am happy to help you with whatever certification you need and look forward to seeing if our schedules can match!
