Additional Comments: I
started life as a biochemistry researcher and on a whim took a flight
lesson at a small flying club called Alameda Aero Club, at Oakland
Airport. Little did I know that after that my life would change. It
turns out my primary instructor was no other than Ben Freelove, now a
world class aerobatic competition pilot. Through his guidance and wisdom
I developed a passion for flying, particularly aerobatic flight. Now,
10 years later I own a Pitts S2C, I’m competing in aerobatic
competitions, and teaching others the joy and exhilaration of flight. I
am available most weekdays and weekends (I will sometimes take either a
Saturday
or Sunday off) to help you reach your goals, whether it’s your
first take off, perfecting instrument flying in a glass cockpit
environment, or rolling a plane upside down. I’m qualified to teach a
range of skills in a variety of aircraft. Feel free to contact me with
any questions you may have, I’d be happy to chat in more detail about
how to launch your flight path.
