Summary

I am from a small town and have lived on a farm all my life. It taught me hard work and gave me a drive to succeed. At age 15, I was introduced to gliders and received my Private Glider Certificate at age 17. After graduating from high school, I decided to pursue a career in aviation. I moved to South Carolina where I received my Single Engine Private, then moved to North Carolina where I received my Instrument and Commercial Certificate. Having financial restraints, I then moved home to work and save enough money to further my training. I am capable, goal-oriented and hard working.

Certificates:

Commercial, Single Engine Land

Instrument

Private, Glider
