Aircraft mechanic delivering safe, efficient aircraft maintenance and decisive problem-solving.
What I'm looking for
I’m a dedicated aircraft mechanic with proven performance in management, leadership, and communication, and I’m known for being efficient and detail-oriented. I bring a strong problem-solving and planning mindset, ready to make an immediate contribution to help a company achieve its goals.
Currently, I work as an aircraft mechanic for United Airlines, where I assess and troubleshoot aircraft discrepancies, perform operational and function tests, and complete leak checks of aircraft systems. I determine appropriate MEL/NEF/CDL deferrals, evaluate aircraft damage, configure aircrafts for ferry flights, and coordinate aircraft irregularities with Maintenance Control.
Before United Airlines, I built hands-on aviation experience through airframe and power plant technician work and avionics maintenance at Panasonic Avionics on in-flight entertainment systems under FAA Part 121/127/135/145 requirements. Alongside aviation, I serve as an Auxiliary Police officer for NYPD command CTTF, bringing strong customer service, conflict resolution, and time-management to high-accountability environments.
