Hello and welcome to my website. I am an corporate pilot, a graphic designer, aviation artist and amateur photographer.

Being born into a missionary family, travel was a huge part of our life and ultimately what led me to discover my interest in aviation.

Born in Australia, my first introduction to aviation was at the age of 3 when we moved back to my parents home in Canada. Moving between Florida, Papua New Guinea and Canada, as a missionary family, it provided many opportunities to experience travel.

At the age of 16 I had a choice to either buy a motorcycle or get my pilots license. Getting my pilots license was a decision I have never regretted.

In 2006 I started my career flying the Fairchild Metro II with Perimeter Airlines in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Flying into northern reserve communities developed critical experience and confidence, and within two years was promoted to captain.

In 2009 I moved on from the Metro to a Lear 45 flying all over the United States and Canada.

I started flying for Calm Air in 2010 flying the SAAB 340. This flying brought me further north and into the great Canadian Arctic. Two years later Calm Air retired the SAAB and I went on to the ATR 42 and ATR 72. From there I went to WestJet Encore as a captain on their Dash 8-Q400. I am currently the Chief Pilot and captain on a corporate Challenger 300 based in Winnipeg.

Being a Pilot I get to see the world from a different point of view. Expressing this world into my artwork and photos, it's clear to see how much I love my 'Office in the Sky'.
