  •   My Bio

After a multi-decade career in the military as a Marine Aviator and Flight Instructor, I decided that the skills I honed would best be put to use as a business owner and helping business owners. I spent over two decades as a pilot in the Marines, after which I was a commercial airlines pilot. I learned a lot about the importance of planning, logistics, and why the smallest of details matter the most. The success of any operation, whether we are talking about a luxury vacation or a business plan, comes down to preparation and execution. 

My 20-year experience as a pilot for the Marines and commercial airlines instilled in me an understanding that perfect planning results in perfect execution. I wanted to share this insight with others. To help hone my skills and their application to a variety of businesses, I earned a BS in Management Sciences and a MS in Management at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. I also worked toward a MBA in International Business Development from the University of Iowa. The combination of my extensive schooling and my real world professional experience, makes me a tremendous asset to other business owners. This led me to founding Creative Development Solutions, a business dedicated to helping others with problem solving and logistics. 

The bottom line is that the devil is always in the details. This is true of your dream destination vacation or a complex aviation problem. It is my life mission to handle the details that matter most, as well as the ones that you do not even realize matter. Allow me to use my diligence and relentless problem solving to ensure that your business achieves heights you never thought imaginable. 

Creative Development Solutions is based out of Pensacola, Florida and provides insider knowledge and consultation for organizations in need of complex solutions. I take tremendous pride in being an innovator and a problem-solver. Whether you are looking to evaluate and improve upon UAV systems or you are looking to transform your organization, but need government contracts or capital investment, we can help. Our years of experience and proven results in the military and civilian sectors will provide you with professional, timely and effective solutions for all of your needs.
