About Me

My love for aviation started with a ride in a Piper J3 Cub. From that point on I was hooked, and even got my private pilot's license years later.


Since that first ride, I've spent my career working in the aviation industry. My 30+ years of experience has allowed me the opportunity to work with the world's largest airports, airlines, and rental car companies. Each of these experinces has given me a wealth of knowledge and allows me to bring a unique perspective to each of my projects.


I look forward to working with companies to help them grow in this ever-changing industry.
