| First jump | Oct. 1987, AFF Level 1 Deland Florida I was on vacation and I heard about this crazy thing called Skydiving and knew I had to give it a try. I was immediately addicted so they told me where to go once I returned home and the rest is history  |
| Jumps | 3000+ |
| Ratings | None, all of mine have expired |
| Future ratings | None |
| Container | RI Curv. I love the fit, the bio yoke keeps the weight off your shoulders and the container fits snug against your lower back. |
| Main canopy | Stiletto 120. I love the performance of this canopy. Wing loading is about 1.3, which is where I like to be. |
| Favorite discipline | Relative work (belly flying) |
| Skydiving Training | Old Spaceland & Skydive San Marcos |
| Most common mistake you see new jumpers make? | Understanding canopy flight plans and how to correct to avoid other jumpers. The transition program is a great place for the newer jumpers to learn about this. |
