My Story

In 2015, my dad purchased a J-3 Cub, and that airplane is what ignited my love for aviation. Growing up around fly-ins and the general aviation community shaped who I am today. By 2018, I knew aviation was something I wanted to pursue for myself, and I began working toward becoming a pilot.

I learned to fly at Cub Air Flight with Steve Krog, a Part 61 flight school in Hartford, Wisconsin, where I trained exclusively in tailwheel aircraft. Over the past several years, I’ve logged hundreds of hours as PIC and have used my film business to experience a wide range of aircraft. From gliders to MiG-15s, the A-26 Invader, P-40 Warhawk, Stearman, and Extra 330, I’ve been able to build a diverse flying background that continually pushes my skills and deepens my passion for aviation. In 2025, I added a seaplane rating and later earned my flight instructor certificate.

As much as I’d love for flying to be my full-time career, I currently run a small production company in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. While the work spans documentary, real estate, and corporate projects, aviation remains at the heart of what I do. The flexibility of the business gives me the freedom to fly often, travel, create, and stay deeply connected with the aviation world.

Over the past few years, my 1946 Aeronca Chief has become a huge part of that journey. It has taken me across the country, into fly-ins, new communities, and experiences I never imagined when I first started flying. Along the way, I’ve continued expanding into new aircraft, learning from experienced aviators, and documenting the people, airplanes, and stories that make General Aviation special.

My mission is to inspire future aviators to find their own way into aviation while showing just how fun, adventurous, and community-driven flying can be. Through engaging, story-driven video and photo content, I want to share the experiences aviation has given me, promote General Aviation in a positive light, and build connections across the community.
