Meet Our Staff

I graduated from the KCTC Aviation program in 2019 and went on to work at a company in Vermont called Green Mountain Avionics. After my time in Vermont, I moved back to Michigan to help my family start an avionics shop at the Sparta airport. I still help with some projects and work on aircraft there. 

I'm excited for this opportunity to share with students the enjoyment I had of learning aviation. I am currently learning more and continuing my education at Western Michigan University. I'm also coaching high school hockey.

I was born and raised in Grand Rapids and recently moved back to the area after going to school at Western Michigan University. There, I obtained my Bachelor of Science in General Aviation, along with obtaining my private pilot's license. I’m still taking flight lessons on the side whenever I can, always gaining more experience and ratings from both inside and outside the cockpit. 

I’ve attended both Part 141 and Part 61 flight schools, so I have a ton of knowledge to share with all of my students! There are endless opportunities in the world of aviation, and my main goal is to steer students in the right direction and help them get a foot in the door in whatever aviation-related career path they might take. When I’m not indulging in the world of aviation, I like to cook, catch up on my favorite TV shows, and have boat days on the water with my family.
