Founder, Director of Operations at Desert Biofuels Initiative

My professional career has alternated between aviation and computer technology, and most recently work on sustainable biofuels.
In 2007 I co-founded Desert Biofuels Initiative while working full-time for a large technology company in the Phoenix area as a pilot on their in-house employee shuttle.
I hold an Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) license with type ratings on the Embraer 135 (EMB-135/145) and Jetstream 3100/3200 (BA-3100).
