I am a former UH-60 Black Hawk pilot with 8 years of leadership experience in and out of the cockpit, and over 1,150 hours of incident-free flight time. I bring a safety focused mindset, mission driven leadership, and experience operating in demanding environments as a company commander and flight instructor.

My goal is to bring my military background, professionalism, and commitment to continuous improvement to every organization I serve while continuing to grow as a pilot and teammate.
