Prior to joining JSSI, he held leadership positions at Learjet, Gulfstream, Embraer Executive Jets, Satcom Direct and Bluetail, with his most recent role as the regional sales director, aircraft management at Jet Aviation Flight Services where he managed the Pacific Northwest and northern California US territories.
