A Note From the Author

Dear reader, I’m glad you found your way here. I’m an airline pilot, a writer, and someone who has spent much of his life seeing the world from a different perspective—sometimes from 40,000 feet, and sometimes from the streets, neighborhoods, and communities I’ve had the privilege of exploring.

Travel has given me more than destinations. It’s introduced me to people, cultures, ideas, and experiences that have shaped the way I see the world and my place in it.

I divide my time between the quiet countryside of Southern Indiana and the vibrant energy of Miami, Florida, call me a snow bird if you must. I share that life with my husband, Cristian, who is originally from Colombia and never lets me forget to pack a little warmth wherever I go.

This website is a home for my writing—a collection of personal essays, reflections, short stories, and, eventually, longer works. Some are inspired by places I’ve visited, others by people I’ve encountered, and still others by the ordinary moments in life that leave an extraordinary impression. You’ll also find I have a passion writing about aviation and its many aspects.

I’m glad you’re here, and I hope something you read stays with you until you return for more!
