Jeffrey Michael Adams

Jeff was born on February 18, 1973 in Rochester, New York, the son of John E. and Ardeth M. (Wolko) Adams. Jeff achieved the honor of Eagle Scout, and at the age of 15 received his private pilot’s license. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Aeronautical Science from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in 1995.

He spent a long and rewarding career of 25 years as a Senior Staff Engineer for Aero Simulation, Inc., in Tampa, Florida.
