For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated with aviation. Before moving to Murfreesboro in 2002, I began flight training at a local airport near my home in Memphis, Tennessee. I graduated in May 2006 from Middle Tennessee State University with a degree in Aerospace. I am currently pursuing a Masters in Aerospace Education at MTSU. I am very excited to share my passion for aviation with others as well as learn from the experience of flight instructing. The joy and freedom of flight in a general aviation airplane cannot be matched. In addition to my responsibilities as a flight instructor, I am also the Programs Director for the Aerospace Education Program, which works with area schools to further aviation interest through math and science. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, my pet beagle Abby, and working with a Murfreesboro theatrical performance company.

I'm located in Murfreesboro, Tennessee
