I assist in the duties of pilot in command and transport people and property across the United States.
What is the most rewarding and the most challenging part of your job?
The most rewarding part of my job is making a positive impact on travel plans. The most challenging part is deciding the best course of action when things don't go as planned.
If you had a campus job or internship, how did they impact your career development?
I was a flight instructor at the WMU College of Aviation. I not only learned how to effectively teach and communicate in a dynamic environment but also I honed my flying skills for my future career.
What advice do you have for others pursuing a career similar to yours?
Make as many connections as possible! This industry is small and you will most likely see someone again. Always try to leave a positive impact on someone no matter what!
