Gold Seal Flight Instructor 

Ever since I took my first flight lesson in 1998, I’ve been hooked! At that time, I was teaching high school English in Ohio but after earning my Private Pilot’s license, I decided to make a change and combine my two loves, flying and teaching. I cashed in everything I had, moved to Tucson, completed my ratings and began instructing in 2001. 

Now over 10 years later, my passion for aviation has only grown stronger. I have been fortunate to have met and worked with some incredible individuals since I started flying and my desire is to continue to pass on what has been passed on to me. I’ve given over 10,000 hours of instruction, assisted almost 350 pilots in earning their wings or advanced ratings and there’s nothing more I’d rather do than continue doing the same. 

In 2003, I was fortunate to be the recipient of the International Council of Air Shows Foundation’s Red Barons Memorial Scholarship and in 2004 the Hal Goddard Memorial Tailwheel Scholarship. I’m a member of the National Association of Flight Instructors, Aircraft Owners and Pilot’s Association and Women in Aviation, International.
