I started my professional career working as a production assistant for WHP-TV in Harrisburg, PA just after graduating college. After a few months, I was given the opportunity to prove myself as a videographer - starting with high school football, then transitioning to traditional news stories. I became a full time photojournalist, and shared incredible stories from one of the top 40 markets in the nation before I decided to join the military. I received my commission in the United States Air Force by way of Officer Training School, and became a public affairs officer. When it comes to leadership, I never task anyone I work with to do something I wouldn’t be willing to do myself. Thanks to my previous career, I have experience that has helped me guide many Airmen I’ve had the pleasure to lead. When I’m not at work, you can usually find me doing something involving general aviation. I was fortunate enough to be able to earn my private pilot’s license back in 2015, and aviation has become my hobby and my passion. Outside of work and hobbies, my family keeps me truly grounded. My wife, a fellow officer in the Air Force, has taught me lessons in leadership, love and life. Between her, our two children, two dogs and cat, I never find myself longing for more.
