Kenny Cooper

As VP of Operations at an environmental drilling firm, I handle everything from safety audits to crew rosters and gear upkeep—plus whatever else pops up in the field. In a tight crew like ours, roles shift fast; today I’m selling bids, tomorrow I’m fixing drills, all while keeping losses low and everyone safe.

Conducted thorough pre-flight inspections and post-flight debriefs to uphold safety protocols. Boosted on-time departures through careful timing of prep work and worked closely with the captain and crew—clear lines, zero mix-ups. Reason for leaving: After successfully completing IOE, my family called and indicated my father encountered a debilitating back injury requiring me back to help run the business. Timing could not have been worse; however, family took priority.
