I'm a commercial UAS pilot and construction project manager based in Norwood, NY, serving the North Country — St. Lawrence, Jefferson, Franklin, and Lewis Counties and the surrounding region.
My background is civil and utility construction, which means I fly the kinds of missions contractors and engineers actually need: survey-grade RTK photogrammetry, earthwork cut/fill and stockpile volume measurement, construction progress documentation, existing-conditions capture, as-builts, and SWPPP/environmental compliance documentation. I process my own data in Pix4D and deliver orthomosaics, point clouds, surfaces, and volume reports.
I fly a Freefly Astro — NDAA-compliant and Blue UAS-listed — making me a fit for utility, government, and critical-infrastructure work where DJI platforms aren't permitted. I've completed the FAA authorization process for controlled-airspace operations with ATC coordination, and my UAS program (operations manual, safety management system, FRAT-based risk assessment) has been through formal utility vendor review. Operations are backed by $10M aviation liability coverage.
Because I work in construction full-time, I understand site safety, tailboard briefings, and working around active heavy equipment — I show up insured, in PPE, and ready to integrate with your crew, not just fly over it.
