Commercial Pilot Certified Flight Instructor: Instrument Airplane

Even as a very small child I knew I was going to be a pilot when I grew up. My first airplane ride was with my father at the ripe old age of 6 months. When I was not strapped to the car seat in the back of my fathers Cessna 172, I was flying my bottle around in the high chair making airplane noises. I started flight lessons at the age of 20 and got my private license from ATD at the age of 21. I attended and graduated from the University of Central Missouri where I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Aviation Systems Design. While working on my B.S, I continued to fly with ATD completing my Instrument and Commercial rating. After graduating I went back to the University of Central Missouri to earn my Masters of Science in Aviation Safety. Before I graduated with my masters I received my CFI, again from ATD. Now as an instructor at ATD I am able to share the joy of aviation with others.
