Currently, I am an FAR Part 91 Lead Pilot on the Gulfstream G280 and Daher TBM960 aircraft. I transport a VIP executive and his guests on behalf of a midsize holding company throughout South, Central, and North America, as well as Europe and the South Pacific. These trips are very diverse in nature, requiring an in-depth knowledge of international flight planning, customs and immigration procedures, as well as coordinating passenger in-flight and ground transportation needs.Outside my piloting duties, I also serve as the operational point of contact between the Company Board and the internal flight operations team. I was tasked to perform an in-depth performance and economic mission analysis and made recommendations for a fleet upgrade. I coordinated the sale of our Citation Sovereign+ and acquisition of a Gulfstream G280. I conducted logbook and maintenance discrepancy reviews, coordinated delivery with the manufacturer, and negotiated entitlement flight training contracts. I’m also responsible for analyzing our flying schedule, determining staffing needs, and developing our contract pilot support network.In addition, I am responsible for the overall tracking and scheduling of all aircraft maintenance events. I routinely coordinate with Gulfstream and Daher service centers ensuring regulatory and airworthiness compliance. To maximize aircraft availability, I communicate regularly with my principal and their teams to ensure the aircraft is always available for their use.

While working as a part-time G280 and Citation 680 series contract pilot, I maintain working relationships with several Chilean operators, transporting their executives, private aircraft owners, and guests throughout South America under FAR Part 91 and Chilean DGAC DAN135 operations, respectively.

Prior to joining Inversiones Pintueye, I held two roles for a Chilean charter operator. First, I operated Beechcraft King Air 90/200/250/350 aircraft throughout southern South America transporting high-profile clientele and business executives under Chilean DGAC DAN135 charter regulations. In order to ensure high customer service standards were met, I routinely communicated with company representatives and ground handlers from various countries. This experience provided me with valuable knowledge and skills in working with people from diverse cultures and backgrounds.During the acquisition of a new Beechcraft King Air 250, I worked on the delivery process and conducted the acceptance flight and subsequent ferry flight back to Santiago, Chile from Wichita, Kansas. These flights required an expert knowledge of the aircraft systems and handling characteristics.Aviasur also had a contract in which I conducted aeromagnetic surveying flights on behalf of the Chilean Military Geographic Service. This contract required precise flying, effective communication, and complex air traffic control coordination while on-board technicians used highly sophisticated instrumentation to measure magnetic minerals in the upper regions of the earth's crust.My second role was as the Assistant Operations Manager in which I tracked flight duty times ensuring regulatory and company policy compliance. To better serve my fellow pilots, I also gathered and prepared their trip documentation and provided support while they were away from base. In addition, I assisted the charter sales department by providing Hawker 400 versus King Air aircraft cost and performance analysis to determine profitability for each trip. This sales role extended into assisting the local Bombardier and Beechcraft dealers by providing aircraft performance capabilities expertise. On many occasions, I also conducted Beechcraft and Diamond aircraft sales demonstration flights for prospective owners and operators.

During my time spent working for Aerotrust Servicios, I began operating single engine Cessna aircraft and advanced into a pilot role on their Beechcraft King Air. I conducted Chilean DGAC DAN135 charter operations throughout southern South America. I also participated in the pre-buy inspection, acceptance and subsequent ferry flight during the purchase of a King Air 90 from Little Rock, Arkansas to Santiago, Chile.My primary duties included performing preflight inspections, obtaining weather and ATC clearances, and loading FMS data, as part of the First Officer role, i maintained a clean aircraft appearance, reloaded aircraft stock and catering, loaded and unloaded passenger baggage, and coordinated specialty customer service requests.Prior to moving into the King Air fleet, I conducted single pilot, multiengine flights in Cessna T303/Crusader and Piper Navajo aircraft on behalf of aircraft owners and their guests.Upon initial employment, I served as an on-board aerial survey technician identifying and photographing potential oil and gas pipeline hazards. I then completed and submitted reports to the pipeline operations center for their analysis. Shortly thereafter, I upgraded to pilot and conducted low altitude aerial survey flights in single-engine Cessna aircraft domestically throughout Chile under VFR regulations. During the 8.8 magnitude earthquake of 2010, I helped in surveying operations identifying damaged pipelines and supporting emergency services.
