My Hobbies

 

When I’m asked what I do for fun, I feel a great sense of pride in telling people I am a pilot, scuba diver, and explorer. More than just a hobby, it instills a real sense of humility by making me realize just how small I am in the boundless and infinite world around me. 

     Regardless of whether I choose to propel up or dive down, I am always in awe to experience the life of a bird or a fish; it gives a whole new meaning to the word “possibility.”

As an adrenaline junkie, I am fond of freaking my parents out (They prefer a peaceful vacation at the beach) by sharing heart pounding moments from an in-flight emergency or a too close of an encounter with a very hungry shark.  

fun pilot experiences

Acrobatic Flying

Pulled 6.5 Gs in a Extra 300L Jet 

Did parabolas, hammerheads, loops, barrel rolls (yes I had the best few hours of my life right outside Kennedy Space Center's Airspace)

My Top 5 Flying Locations

1. Right Over NYC Hudson River: Flew multiple times over statue of liberty, Manhattan, Empire State Building, George Washington Bridge, etc during the day and at night- the city is breathtaking! 

2. Over Hollywood Sign and Downtown LA

3. Flight over Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral's launchpads

4. Flight over the Pocono Mountains and Appalachian mountains in Philadelphia on a glider! 

5. Flight from Santa Monica to Catalina Island
