My Aviation history 

​

It has been an honor to serve in the U.S Coast Guard Auxillary as a photographer documenting the missions performed by our Coast Guard men and women. My love for aviation began during my time in college where I studied photography and film production. I started working part-time for a small municipal airport during my summer school breaks. I believe I truly fell in love with aviation after my first helicopter flight. The sound of the thundering rotors overhead, feeling the wind swirling with power around me as I boarded the aircraft, the sight of the earth falling away beneath my feet - this experience started it all and ignited my passion for aviation.
