As with most enthusiasts, I started flying at an early age and dedicated my life's ambition to the fascinating field of aviation. I started out civilian flying in the early 1970's while in undergraduate school at Villanova University. After graduation, I was commissioned as an Ensign in the U.S. Navy and began a 13 year active duty flying career as a Naval Flight Officer and Pilot. In 1987 I resigned my active duty commission and entered my second career as a pilot for American Airlines . After enjoying 31 years flying all over the world, I reached mandatory retirement age and reluctantly left the industry.
I am now serving as a flight instructor at Shannon School of Aeronautics and JLS Aviation where I can share the joy and satisfaction of flying to all of those who want to start a career, personal flying, or just experience the wonderment of what the Wright Brothers began.

I arrived late to aviation. I was thirty-six years old and decided to change careers and become a professional pilot. I took my training at ATP in Jacksonville, Fl. I arrived the first week of May 2008 and completed the course the first week of February 2009. Upon completion I had acquired both single and multi-engine instrument instructor licenses.
Due to the economic downturn beginning in 2008 I returned to Virginia to stay with family while beginning my job search. While sending out resumes I decided I needed to fly occasionally to stay proficient. I came to Shannon Airport and met with Jim Stover and found out he was in need of a flight instructor at JLS Aviation. I was in luck. I took the position and have now been at JLS for over seven years.
Over those seven years I have fallen in love with Shannon Airport and JLS. I have been able to fly with many people and helped them achieve their goals in aviation, developing many lasting friendships along the way. Professionally I was able to earn my Gold Seal as a CFI and am currently working on my ATP.
I look forward to many new flying adventures and continuing to help people achieve their flying goals.
