William Henry Bugden III

I had the privilege to serve as Captain on the E170/175 flying as United Express based in Houston representing United Airlines. My approach is to foster a strong team approach with my entire crew, and all of our ground support to achieve a safe and professional, and efficient result each flight. As Captain, I feel it important to seek to be a consistent example as mentor/leader of my crew. This flying included routes both Domestic over much of the United States, extensive International flying in Mexico, as well as flying serving Canada, the Bahamas, and Cuba.

Served as First Officer on United Express flights based in IAH. As flight crew in a standardized environment worked to achieve safe, efficient, and on time performance on each flight with our crews.

I established a successful historical restoration contracting business in the high end residential market on Boston's North Shore.

This work utilized architectural and building skills requiring a high level of quality and performance to my customer base. This work requires not only trade skills but a strong work ethic, good interpersonal and management skill sets.
