A software engineer by day and an aviator at heart, I have been working for small and large tech companies in the Bay Area for over 25 years and have been flying for over 10 years.  Whether it is for that $100 burger, going to unique places accessible only by general aviation, or pursuing an aviation career, learning to fly is the most satisfying skill and experience one can acquire.

I own and fly a vintage Beechcraft A36 Bonanza and I specialize in aircraft acquisition and have safely and successfully completed many coast to coast ferrying missions. Beside personal flying and teaching, I’m also a formation pilot with FFI formation flying credentials, one of the two FAA accredited industry organizations that evaluate and qualify pilots for performing in airshow waiver airspaces. I’m an active member of the B2OSH formation flying community where we often host formation flying clinics to train new formation pilots and perform large formation flyovers throughout the year. In addition, I volunteer for Angel Flight, Pilot n Paws and Civil Air Patrol.

Let me share with you the joy of flying and help you achieve your aviation dreams!
