I started flying when I was 15 and quickly realized aviation was something I wanted to pursue long-term. After graduating from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, I moved to California and earned my Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) certification and now get to share my passion for flying with others. There’s nothing quite like helping someone experience the joy of flight for the first time or reach their goals in aviation. When I’m not flying or teaching on the ground, you’ll probably find me outdoors — rock climbing, hiking and/or camping. I also enjoy acro-yoga and fish keeping. Aviation/ flying is extraordinarily enjoyable and I try to emphasize that in every lesson.
