I began flying at the age of 15, driven by a lifelong passion for aviation. I went on to study Commercial Aviation at the University of North Dakota, one of the nation’s premier flight training programs. After graduating, I launched my professional career as a flight instructor and charter pilot at the Fargo Jet Center, where I gained valuable experience mentoring aspiring aviators and flying diverse missions.
Once I had built my hours, I joined SkyWest Airlines, flying the CRJ 200, 700, and 900, as well as the ERJ 175. After several years, I upgraded to Captain, a role I held for a year and a half before advancing to a major airline.
I am now a First Officer at Delta Air Lines on the Boeing 737, where I continue to refine my skills, expand my experience in large-scale airline operations, and pursue my passion for connecting people through aviation.
