Progress
I am building the next chapter of my career in aviation maintenance while working toward my Airframe & Powerplant certification. This site documents the study notes, hands-on projects, FAA references, and practical lessons I am learning along the way.
AirframeStructures, hardware, inspection, sheet metal
PowerplantEngines, systems, maintenance fundamentals
FAA StudyFAR-AMT, AC 43.13-1B, test prep
Current A&P Focus
I am especially interested in aviation maintenance opportunities at or near IAH and CXO airports.

Technical background, aviation maintenance focus.
Before starting my A&P journey, I built a career in technology operations, infrastructure, cloud systems, automation, and troubleshooting. That background taught me how to diagnose complex problems, follow procedures, document work clearly, and keep critical systems reliable.
Today, that experience supports my aviation maintenance training — but the focus of this site is my path toward becoming a skilled, safety-minded A&P mechanic.
