ATP AMEL, Commercial Pilot ASEL, CFI, AGI, Part 107 Drone Pilot  

My path in aviation started at a young age. While still strapped to a car seat my dad and Grandfather would hold me up to the sky anytime a plane passed overhead. My grandfather would often take me to the airport to help him with aircraft maintenance or inspections. These trips to the airport would usually end up with a short flight, me seated on a stack of phone books barely being able to see out the side windows. From there, I went on to discover the hobby of RC airplanes which I still enjoy to this day. While in high school I completed my first solo flight, soon after I completed my Private Pilot certificate and Instrument rating at Oklahoma State University. In 2016 I graduated from OSU with a Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Administration and operations. In the years after graduating, I earned my commercial single engine and multi engine, Advanced Ground Instructor (AGI), and Certified Flight Instructor. After 3 years instructing, I left instructing as so many other instructors do and followed the path to the regional airlines, there I earned an Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certificate. After a year serving as First Officer onboard the CRJ-900, I decided that instructing was what I had a passion for. I left the Airlines and started Pathway Aviation, where I serve as an independent flight instructor, helping others find their path in the aviation industry.
