My aviation journey began here at Advantage Aviation, originally just looking for a fun and challenging hobby. I quickly got drawn in by the process of learning and the pure enjoyment of being in the air. After spending several years flying for fun, I became a flight instructor and now teach part-time with a flexible schedule, primarily in Diamond aircraft.

My teaching style combines structure with flexibility. I provide each student with a clear syllabus, lesson agendas, and a long-term plan while encouraging them to stay curious and actively shape their own progress. Whether you’re just starting with a discovery flight or pursuing advanced training, my goal is to help you enjoy aviation and become a safe, capable pilot.

Outside the club, I own and fly a Cirrus and enjoy taking it on cross-country flights simply for sightseeing and exploring new places from the air. When I’m not flying, I work at a tech startup focused on building systems and infrastructure for the cloud.

Instruction is available in Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, and English.
