First Officer at Vista Jet - Global 6000

A Bit About Me

I am a professional pilot currently employed as a First Officer on the Global 6000 at VistaJet, operating in a high-performance, international business aviation environment. My flying background combines structured airline-style training with real-world operational experience, giving me a strong understanding of both training standards and practical cockpit decision-making.

​

I completed my flight training at Atlantic Flight Training Academy, where I built a solid foundation in single- and multi-engine operations, IFR flying, and pilot-in-command responsibilities. Following my training, I progressed into instructional flying, accumulating extensive experience as a Flight Instructor, supporting students through their early flight training, instrument flying, and professional licence development.

​

My career path has allowed me to experience aviation from multiple perspectives — student, instructor, and now corporate jet pilot — which helps me relate closely to pilots preparing for exams, simulator assessments, or major career transitions such as type ratings and first professional roles.

​

I place strong emphasis on structured preparation, situational awareness, and understanding why procedures and decisions matter, rather than relying on rote learning. My mentoring approach is practical, calm, and focused on building confidence through clear explanations and realistic scenarios.
