Get in Touch

A former west coast DJ turned police officer and entrepreneur. I am also a commercial pilot and type rated in the Cirrus SF50 Vision Jet we affectionately refer to as #GoodKarmaAirlines. Based in the Nashville area, we spend quite a bit of time flying my Cirrus Vision Jet on personal trips and as a volunteer Command Pilot for several patient and disabled veteran flying organizations. I hope to take you alone on some of our flights and also review pilot gear, interview other pilots and show you interesting content. Thank you for watching and coming along. (Contact)
