Flight Instructor at Tailwheels, Etc. in Lakeland FL.

I began flying at age 15, soloing at 16 and earning my private certificate at 17. From 1991 - 2011 I directed and successfully grew a professional marketing communications agency that served category-leading brands and Fortune 500 clients, while owning and operating two aircraft as a private, instrument rated pilot.

In 2012, I completed a career change into aviation and have been instructing full time since April 2012. From April 2012 to present, I have accumulated nearly 800 hours of dual instruction given and 400 hours as ground instructor and have qualified as a Gold Seal Instructor.
