I am 26 years old and currently living in Lincoln, California. I grew up in Nebraska, and attended the United States Air Force Academy. I've always had a passion for aviation. The plan after graduating from the Academy was to fly, but that didn't pan out due to a waiver being denied. So I became an Air Force Civil Engineer, which I have enjoyed from the beginning. I keep my thirst for aviation quenched by spending time flying on the weekends... and now also by building my own airplane!
