About Me:: I am an Australian based pilot. I have been ballooning for 29 years, having started at 4 years of age when my parents got into it. Having tried most aspects of the sport over the years (private, commercial, instructing, competing etc.) my true passion these days is competition flying.

In my real life work as an implementation consultant for a web analytics company, Omniture.
