Instructor Bio
I was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest but moved to Alaska seeking adventure after college. I had a passion for aviation and had dreams of being a pilot but put that aside for a degree in finance instead, and spent the last decade in wealth management. Wanting a break from the same routine, I did a discovery flight in late 2020 and knew it was time to make a change and follow in the footsteps of my dad and grandfather who were both pilots. I started my aviation journey in Alaska, learning to fly in its challenging conditions, alongside its rugged beauty, and everything in between. I decided to come back to my roots in the Pacific Northwest and complete my training at Ranier Flight School. The excellent training I received here helped fuel my passion to help other students achieve their aviation dreams.
When I am not flying, you’ll find me spending time outside with my wife and kids, skiing in the winter, and riding motorcycles in the summer.
