As long as I can remember I have loved aviation and the entire industry in comprises. From a young age I sought out anything I could get my hands on that brought me closer to airplanes. I spent a considerable amount of time at the airport and eventually began taking flying lessons at Atlanta’s premier flight school at PDK. After some experience in the field, I started assisting with operations and learning how to instruct. The opportunities fostered here gave me the privilege to travel and catch the bug. I want to see every country and continent and bring the joy of flying with me. These experiences led me to form my current goal of becoming a flight instructor. I have seen firsthand the tremendous impact CFI’s can have their students in all walks of life. CFIs are in a position to not only provide quality flight instruction but to help students put problems into perspective and quite literally see things from a different height.
