Instructor Bio

I grew up on the central coast of California with a family that had the travel bug. My parents believed you could learn a lot by traveling the United States and the world. I quickly fell in love with flying and visiting the cockpit each time I flew. 

I didn't start flying until after I graduated college and had a career in sales for a few years. After realizing that career wasn't for me, I decided it was time for a change. I checked out the local flight school in Santa Rosa, CA and started working on my Private Pilot Certificate. I got hooked by the flying bug, working my way up to Certified Flight Instructor and haven't looked back. 

When I am not working, my wife, friends, and I enjoy traveling to any destination with a beach, snowboarding, dirt biking, and finding new restaurants, especially if it is on an airstrip.  

I look forward to helping other pilots reach their aviation goals.
