Certified Drone Pilot
I operate at the intersection of aviation, geospatial intelligence, and critical infrastructure security. With over six years of experience delivering drone-enabled intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) for high-risk oil and gas environments, I support asset integrity, risk mitigation, and operational safety through precise aerial data and actionable geospatial insight. Trained at the Nigerian College of Aviation Technology and certified as a commercial drone pilot with advanced operational ratings, including night operations, I bring an aviator’s discipline and security mindset to every mission. My expertise spans pipeline right-of-way surveillance, wellhead inspections, flare stack analysis, and confined-space intelligence gathering, using photogrammetry and LiDAR-equivalent methodologies. Beyond operations, I am a dedicated drone instructor with a proven record of developing pilots from zero experience into safety-focused, mission-ready professionals. My training philosophy emphasizes operational security, regulatory compliance, and intelligence-driven decision-making. I am currently advancing my expertise through postgraduate studies in Criminology and Security Studies, with a focus on critical infrastructure protection and technology-driven surveillance systems. I am open to opportunities in security intelligence, energy infrastructure protection, UAV security operations, and international monitoring missions where precision, discipline, and accountability are non-negotiable.
