I began building and flying rc gliders 4 decades ago. My passion for flying grew into planes, helicopters, and eventually multi rotors. I was one of the first drone pilots to receive a 333 exemtion to legally fly drones for commercial missions. I have 20 hours of manned aircraft logged. I was one of the first pilots to receive a FAA part 107 license. As of 5/2024, zI have logged over 2876 commercial flights in marketing related photos/videos, agriculture, thermal, mapping, and lidar missions with both multi rotors and fix winged aircraft. I still fly rc airplanes as a hobby and compete in percision aerobatic events. I am also a commercial photographer and videograhper specializing in corporate videos, food and product photography and 360 virtual tours.
