Earning my private pilot license/certificate was one of the most challenging and rewarding things I’ve ever done. They call your pilot certificate a ‘license to learn’. I love expanding my knowledge and honing my skill to be a better pilot.

With this expensive addiction hobby, I take weekend jaunts to brunch, or visit my parents in Palm Springs. In the pilot community, I volunteer with the Civil Air Patrol and Ninety-Nines. I revived the Los Angeles Chapter of the 99s, an organization for women pilots originally started by Amelia Earhart.
