I have been involved with aviation as a pilot for several years. I have worked as a flight instructor and an Assistant Chief Instructor for a large flight school in San Diego for about 3 years. There I conducted nearly 2500 hours of flight instruction as well as various ground school classes. I was hired as a pilot for American Eagle until the horrific events of 9/11. Forced out of the aviation industry, I now enjoy a career as a police officer in Dallas Texas. Currently I still work in the aviation industry at Simuflite at DFW airport as a right seater in a Dassault Falcon 2000 and have returned to flight instruction on a part-time basis. I hold a multi-engine ATP certificate and Commercial Single Engine.
