Hello, I'm Devren C.

Independent Flight Instructor | Accelerated Training Specialist | CFI • CFII • AGI I’m a level-headed​,​ straight-shooting instructor who helps career-transition guys and zero-time students become safe​,​ confident pilots—fast. I went from zero to CFII while running a real estate business and raising four kids under four​,​ so I understand pressure​,​ time constraints​,​ and what it takes to get this done without derailing your life. Before flying​,​ I built a successful business in DFW​,​ then moved my family to Utah for a better lifestyle. Along the way​,​ I built a YouTube brand with 1.6k+ subscribers​,​ which taught me how to communicate clearly​,​ break complex topics down simply​,​ and teach in a way that actually sticks. Those skills transferred directly into flight instruction. I teach because I genuinely love it. Watching someone go from “I hope I can do this” to “I can take my wife and kids flying and feel good about it” never gets old. My students train with me because I keep things simple​,​ stay calm under pressure​,​ and focus on real competence—not tricks​,​ shortcuts​,​ or fluff. Who I work best with: Motivated adults who want to make a life change​,​ fast-track their training​,​ or finally knock out the pilot certificate they’ve put off for years. If you’re serious​,​ committed​,​ and want an instructor who will match your effort​,​ we’ll be a great fit. What you can expect training with me: - Accelerated​,​ efficient​,​ structured lessons - Clear breakdowns of complex concepts - Strong weather​,​ ADM​,​ and real-world decision-making emphasis - A calm​,​ level-headed instructor who won’t waste your time - Checkride-ready confidence on the first attempt - The ability to fly your spouse​,​ kids​,​ parents​,​ or friends safely with real assurance - I keep a flexible schedule—including evenings and weekends—and I’m currently taking on up to 7 students in the DFW area. If you want to train with someone who’s been in your shoes​,​ knows how to balance a real life with real flying​,​ and is committed to getting you checkride-ready with absolute confidence​,​ let’s get started.
