As TEB Regional Mgr, it is my job to be the liaison between Journey Aviation and aircraft owners who I feel can benefit from having their aircraft added to the prestigious Journey Aviation fleet. I work closely with individuals and corporations which own their aircraft, and build upon that relationship to make sure owners get the most out of their asset in the sky. As TEB Base Manager, I am the point of contact for all aircraft, crew, and passenger operations at Teterboro Airport for Journey Aviation. This includes hands-on operations within our aircraft fleet and crew.

Managed all aspects of trip planning and logistical arrangements for aircraft and flight crew, maintained and updated passenger records, and implemented exceptional customer service to internal and external clientele. Cold called and networked with high-net worth executives and fortune 500 companies to provide a private aviation solution for them and/or the company. Created trip quotes and generated itineraries based on travel needs and requirements provided by clients. Provided updates to clients, companies, and executive assistants, and acted as the single point of contact for all passengers, executives, crew, corporate security and other support staff. Proactively created marketing materials, events, and self-sourced leads through Jetnet, Forbes, Hoovers, and other business sources with high-net worth clientele and qualified flyers. Worked on sales, acquisition, management, and short and long term aircraft leasing solutions.

Used past experience and relationships to build, develop, and launch a new boutique private aviation brokerage based at Teterboro Airport that specializes in sales, acquisition, and charter of private aircraft. Trained all sales staff and managers, developed pitch, marketing materials, media exposure, and all operations at the company. Direct liaison for No Limit Air to Teterboro Airport, Atlantic Aviation FBO, FAA, and DOT. With other partners, helped develop website, CRM database, client base, and all company materials and events.
