I have a diverse background in the Aerospace, Wind Energy, and Oil and Gas industries. Experience in Wind Turbine and Oil and Gas equipment manufacturing and inspection.

I have used my Commercial Drone Licence to fly accident and incident free missions for National Insurance firms, National Law firms, Solar Farms, Commercial Real Estate, Agribusiness, and Oil and Gas companies. I have also flown extensively in my farming operations for Eckford Ranch, LLC.

I have built a "Safety First" consciousness into my preflight planning and realtime flight operations.
