About Me
Hello! I'm Mark, and aviation is my greatest passion.
With over nineteen years of diverse experience in the aviation industry, I've had the privilege of working in military and commercial aviation, flight training, sUAS operations, and engaging in aviation volunteering and mentorship programs.
My greatest joy comes from helping others achieve their dreams of flying.
I look forward to being a part of your aviation journey!
