I grew up in Colorado Springs, Colorado. I attended the Air Force Academy and had the opportunity to be a glider instructor pilot. I graduated in 2009 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Military History and a minor in Chinese Language. I worked on THE FORGOTTEN SQUADRON in my spare time at the Academy; interviewing veterans, digging through archives, and even traveling to China three times. I attended pilot training at Sheppard AFB and earned my wings in February 2011. In May, I married my beautiful wife Brianna and we moved to Florida for my first assignment flying for the Air Force.

Please feel free to ask any questions for discussion! I’ll try to post at least once a week.
