I've been flying for almost 20 years in total... Started just out of college.. I've been a reserve Flight Attendant, line-holding Flight Attendant, Purser, Senior Purser, Flight Attendant Supervisor, On-board Cabin Service Manager and now Regional Director of On-board safety and security.

I'm originally from Honolulu-- born and raised.. I've been previously based in London (LHR) , Miami (MIA), Sao Paulo (GRU) , Frankfurt (FRA), Hong Kong (HKG) and now Bangkok (BKK).

I try to fly primarily long haul international on the B744, B772 and B773 aircraft.. Yes.. I am partial to Boeing equipment.

As an airline employee I enjoy travel privileges (free online passes as well as off-line ID's and ZED passes) on most airlines of the world and fly for pleasure very, very frequently.

When I am not flying for work, I enjoy taking same-day return, one or two day trips and spending time with friends in the nearby cities of Manila (MNL), Singapore (SIN), Shanghai (PVG), Sydney (SYD) and Phuket (HKT).. When I have three days off or more, I may fly to San Francisco (SFO), Miami (MIA) or spend time with family back in Honolulu (HNL).

In a typical year I will log about 1,750,000 miles total miles-- for work and pleasure combined.
