My background spans military and commercial aviation, shaping a leadership style rooted in preparation, risk management, and calm execution under pressure.Outside the cockpit, I’m the Co-Founder and Owner of Badlands RV and Cabins, a veteran-owned hospitality business founded alongside my brother. We built the company using the same principles that guided our service—integrity, attention to detail, and taking care of people. Our focus is delivering consistent, high-quality guest experiences while building a scalable, values-driven operation.Across aviation and entrepreneurship, my focus remains consistent: • Mission-first leadership and disciplined execution • Operational excellence in high-reliability environments • Team leadership built on trust, clarity, and accountability • Continuous improvement—professionally, operationally, and personallyI value relationships with people who think long-term, operate with purpose, and follow through. I’m especially interested in opportunities that involve building, scaling, or improving businesses where leadership and execution matter.If you’re working on something meaningful and believe strong leadership is a force multiplier, let’s connect and explore what’s possible.
