Personal Interests
I have flown real missions, experienced real emergencies, and delivered true professionalism over the full spectrum of aviation. I am equally at home delivering White-Glove treatment as a corporate pilot in metro environs as well I am wearing work boots delivering equipment and personnel to the backcountry. I have flown into the heaviest and most restricted airspace, to multiple foreign countries, and to some of the most remote and rugged airstrips on the continent. I am a Swiss Army Knife in aviation, and relish each assignment for its own unique challenges and rewards.
