For the past 20 years, paragliding and hang gliding have been a guiding force in my life, and I want to continue working with a great group of free flight pilots to ensure our national organization works in the right direction for its membership. I believe USHPA is an incredible organization made up of impassioned pilots. I also believe USHPA could be doing more to serve its members’ goals, both current and future, and think we have a good opportunity to guide the organization into the future in a way that will not only preserve our sites and encourage growth but also, perhaps even more importantly, improve our focus on all of our members in good standing!
