Summary

My passion about aviation started when I was 12 years old. I was extremely excited about airplanes and started with model airplanes of different types. Never thought that such a thing is giving me today the so called "feel the aircraft". I can only felt it in my fingers in the remote control by that time and today I can tell you its the best you can have when flying a real aircraft. However life took me to other paths professionally and had to leave the aviation industry, but by that time I said to myself that at fifty I would come back, and actually I did it before. I have deep interest in aircraft avionics, performance and navigation and try always to stay at the forefront of the industry. Recognized throughout the career for resilience, professionalism, safety, kindness, organization, and efficiency. Committed to leveraging expertise and skills to contribute to the success of any aviation organization.
