Why I love skydiving:
"I love skydiving because of the challenge and freedom of pushing your mind, body and parachute to their limits and turning dreams into reality."
About Me
I am a career skydiver with a Bachelors Degree in Aeronautics from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. I'm originally from Pennsylvania but now live in Florida. I am the co-founder and co-owner of The Alter Ego Project with my wife Jeannie. We are both professional competitive canopy pilots as well as professional canopy coach piloting coaches. My wife and I also run the United States Canopy Piloting Association league. It is the largest swoop league in the world and has been for over 20 years. Through the league, we have opportunities to nurture and grow newer competitors. We also run Alter Ego Adventures with our business partner Tim Parrant. AEA is an boogie company that allows skydivers to jump in exotic locations, while also focusing on experiencing the local cultures and travel experience on the ground.

What our students say about us
Join 1000's of skydivers who are becoming truly great flyers and canopy pilots. You will become a better flyer and safer skydiver.
Vertical Flying
"I was stuck at the same skill level for months before finding Krāv. I was finally able to pinpoint exactly what I needed to work on. I went from constantly corking out to confident sitflying. Now I'm helping other skydivers at my drop zone with the same techniques I learned."
Canopy Piloting
"This canopy course should be a B License requirement. It helped me understand exactly what I was doing wrong and how to fix it. I love how simple and clear they make everything. I genuinely believe this course saved my life."
Bodywork
"I started the bodywork course while learning to angle fly. After 15 coaching jumps without a clean exit, I finally got my first solid, stable angle exit and it's because of this course. The hip alignment techniques helped me so much. Can't wait to see what improvements come once I start the workouts. Highly recommended."
