Steps to Success
Built hours at CAU, worked at regional airlines to gain more experience, and hired as Assistant Chief Pilot Job at CAU San Diego. I gave cargo a shot (DHL and Amazon) and enjoyed it but ultimately interviewed with the big three major airlines (Delta, American and United) and was hired by Delta Air Lines.
Future Goals
"Get back into flight training at higher levels. Specifically, training airline pilots. "
