About
Career Achievement
I joined the Phoenix East Aviation (PEA) as a flight instructor in 2020. In addition to my primary job functions, I have earned Airline Transport Pilot License as results of pursuing excellence and self enhancement in career development. Moreover, in 2022, I was recognized by FAA as the Gold Seal flight instructor for my commitment to safe and quality instructions in flight training. During my tenure at the company, I helped the company founded and developed mentorship program that aims for assisting students to achieve higher learning goals and enhance safety of operation during flight. Later, I was promoted as manager of flight training and endorsed role as part 141 check airmen with authorization by FAA.
From Geologist -> Aviation Professional
Prior to the Phoenix East Aviation, I was mainly focused on the academic and professional development at various institutes from coast to coast in the United States. During undergraduate, I studied in geoscience - earth system at the University of Arizona and graduated with Bachelor of Science degree in Geoscience in 2017. Later, I began career development as professional pilot at PEA, Florida in the same year, and became a certified flight instructor in 2019. After earning my Master of Science degree in Aeronautics from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University in 2019, I entered the aviation world to explore my passion for research and teaching.
