Work History
Airport Operations Manager
Middle Georgia Regional Airport
Macon, GA, United States
07.2022 - Current
- Responsible for all aspects of management of operations of the Middle Georgia Regional Airport. I lead a team of seven personnel that ensures that the Airport adheres to all Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) Federal Aviation Requirement (FAR) Part 139 requirements governing operations of United States civil airports. I oversaw/ensured that all Airport tenants complied with FAA requirements and conducted routine and ad-hoc inspections for compliance. I authored major components of and supported development/fielding of a new Middle Georgia Airport Certification Manual and Airport Emergency Plan. I led efforts that ensured the Middle Georgia Regional airport passed two critical FAA inspections during my tenure. I conduct FAA required recurring training courses for Airport tenants and staff. As a recent and the only Airport graduate of the Middle Georgia State Aviation Management program, Airport and City of Macon leadership recognized the need and value of the Aviation Management degree/curriculum. I also provide key management support and FAA expertise to projects for which contractors bid and are contracted for airport improvements. I routinely coordinate, process and issue Project Orders (POs) for airport improvement efforts through required channels. My support routinely identifies issues that if not corrected/resolved would have led to project failure.

Airport Maintenance
Middle Georgia Regional Airport
Macon, GA, United States
06.2021 - 07.2022
- Responsible for daily maintenance of Middle Georgia Regional Airport grounds, facilities, and equipment. I operated and maintained equipment including Tractors, Back-Hoes, Skid Steers, and crack seal machines. I worked to ensure that the airport met all requirements of FAR Part 139. As an Aviation Management student, having/gaining knowledge of FAA requirements for Airport facilities and maintenance proved valuable to the Middle Georgia Regional Airport and the City of Macon. My knowledge and work ethic ultimately led to my promotion to Airport Operations Manager upon completion of my bachelors degree in Aviation Management.
