I’m a Bay Area based CFI who loves helping students build strong, confident fundamentals from day one. I trained entirely in the Bay Area, so I’m very familiar with the airspace, local procedures, and the unique challenges and opportunities of learning to fly here. I primarily instruct in Cessna 172s (G1000, G5s, and Analog Instruments) and I'm currently finishing my CFII to expand the types of training I can offer.My teaching style is calm, structured, and supportive. I break down complex topics into simple, actionable steps and tailor each lesson to your pace and goals. Whether you’re interested in primary training, looking to sharpen your skills, or just shake off some rust, my goal is to make training efficient, safe, and genuinely enjoyable. If you’re looking for a patient instructor who knows the local airspace well and cares about helping you become a confident, capable pilot, I’d be happy to fly with you.
