With over a decade of experience in aviation, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise as a flight dispatcher. My journey began at Tradewinds Aviation Services, where I honed my skills as a flight watch over seven years. Transitioning to Multiple Solutions, I spent four years as a dedicated flight operations officer and loadmaster, managing intricate logistics with precision and efficiency.

At Brent Aviation, I further expanded my capabilities over two years in a similar role, demonstrating adaptability and a commitment to excellence. My tenure at National Airways of Ethiopia solidified my expertise, with nearly two years of invaluable experience as a flight operations officer and loadmaster.

Beyond aviation, I have a passion for education, having taught for five years, imparting knowledge, and fostering growth. Complementing my practical experience, I hold a diploma in project management from the University of Nairobi, underscoring my dedication to continuous learning and professional development.

Driven by a relentless pursuit of excellence, I am poised to leverage my diverse background and skills to contribute effectively to any team or project within the aviation industry.
