I have been a professional pilot since Aug1980, with only a short 3 months between leaving the Navy and starting with Delta Airlines. I have always flown the line, and upgraded to Captain as quickly as possible. I was very fortunate to have been hired by Delta, and my timing was fortunate too.....I was never furloughed or even downgraded in my 34 plus years with Delta. Although my background is mostly flying passengers, I am more than willing to use my knowledge and experience in any capacity that I can contribute. I am looking for a minimum of 5 years continued employment

I played Division 1 College tennis at Stanford and we won the NCAA's 3 of the 4 years I attended. However, I truly was not good enough to make it as a professional tennis player so about junior year I started pursuing a Navy pilot position. Fortunately, it all worked out. I am just an average golfer, but I do love to play the game. And I am a big proponent of staying physically fit and active with a combination of jogging, yoga, hiking, and gym workouts.
