About:
I am an FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot, photographer, and videographer with a background built on engineering, aerospace, project management, and technical problem-solving. Today, I run my own businesses full time, providing drone services, photography, videography, aerial imaging, and visual content production with a focus on precision, professionalism, and high-quality results.
My path began in the U.S. Air Force, where I gained experience with aerospace propulsion systems, jet engines, and turbofan engines. That experience built the discipline, attention to detail, and systems-focused mindset I now bring into every media project, whether I am planning a drone flight, capturing footage, or producing content for clients.
I later worked in the energy and engineering sectors with General Electric and its subsidiaries in roles including Steam Turbine Mechanical Field Engineer & Project Manager, Data Analytics Specialist, and Project Controls Advisor. In those roles, I managed large-scale projects, worked within multi-million-dollar budgets, developed performance metrics, improved operational efficiency, and supported data-driven decision-making. That background strengthened my ability to manage logistics, execute under pressure, and deliver consistent results.
My academic and research experience further reinforced that foundation. While studying Mechanical Engineering at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA), I served as a Graduate Research Assistant in the Hypersonics Wind Tunnel Lab. My work focused on Particle Imaging Velocimetry, high-speed aerodynamics, advanced laser systems, and wind tunnel testing, giving me strong technical experience in precision equipment, visual analysis, and complex data-driven environments.
Across my career, I have developed strengths in technical troubleshooting, process improvement, project management, CAD design, 3D printing, technical analysis, and cross-functional problem-solving. Those skills now support the way I approach media production, from planning and flight operations to image creation, video execution, and client delivery.
My background combines engineering discipline, project leadership, technical precision, and creative execution. As a drone pilot, photographer, and videographer, I bring both technical knowledge and visual storytelling together to create professional content that is intentional, efficient, and built to deliver results.
