An Award-Winning Educator and Father

Meet Your Aviation Mentor 

That’s me! I’ve dedicated my life to aviation and teaching, and it’s my passion to guide the next generation of aviation professionals. My journey began in 1995 when I took my first flight lesson, sparking a love for aviation that has only grown stronger. After attending the Eastern Kentucky University Aviation Program, I returned a decade later to manage the flight department of that same program. Over the years, I’ve gained a wealth of experience as an Airport Manager, aviation business owner, and long-standing member of the Lexington Flying Club since 1998.


A Lifelong Dedication to Aviation and Education

Today, I actively fly and ensure that every student in this program has the opportunity to experience the joy of flying—often at no cost, even if it means taking them up in my own airplane. I believe firsthand experiences are invaluable and strive to make aviation accessible to all my students.

Beyond the cockpit, I am a dedicated public speaker and Toastmaster, frequently traveling across the country to deliver motivational speeches about my rewarding path in aviation and education. Sharing my story is one of the most fulfilling aspects of my career, as I hope to inspire others to pursue their dreams.


Teaching with Purpose.  Parenting with Heart

In addition to my professional accolades, I’m proud to have been named the 2023 Teacher of the Year at our school and the 2024 Regional Teacher of the Year and 2024 State Aviation Teacher of the Year by the United States Air Force Association. These honors reflect my commitment to my students’ success and the passion I bring to the classroom every day.

Outside of aviation, I’m the adoptive father of five amazing children who have been teaching me invaluable lessons about life, patience, and love since the day I met them. They remind me daily of the importance of being a supportive, compassionate guide—whether at home or in the classroom.
