My Story
With an upraised fist, I shouted "Yes!" before starting my "Before Landing Checklist" as I exhilarated in my first solo flight. No less proud an accomplishment was the first time I got to take my parents up flying. Teaching my fiancé, now wife of 15 years, how to control the plane was pure joy. The nerves of sending my first student solo and then for their first check rides still make my heart beat harder. These are but some of my fond memories of this aviation journey I began in 2006.
I have had the honor of working with hundreds of pilots since 2011 as a flight instructor and now designated pilot examiner. I have been privileged to work and fly with pilots from all over the world and open the secrets to flight in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
As a Designated Pilot Examiner since 2019, I have the privilege of working with pilots to achieve their own "Yes!" moments. My goal is to help you get past the nerves of each exam and experience the satisfaction of completing your next pilot rating!
