I have worked at Leesburg Executive Airport for over 15 years. I like working in aviation because every day is different. It is nice to talk to all the customers.
I love spending time with my family. I like to take my two sons swimming and to the county park. We like riding four wheelers on our property and being outside.

I love being exposed to all different types of people from all over the world. I enjoy hearing about different adventures they’ve been on and being so close to the aircraft is pretty awesome to see.
I enjoy camping, crafting & cooking/baking occasionally. I love to spend time with my family and my pup. I’ve just moved here from Upstate NY, but while there I coached a Pop Warner Cheer team & taught a Tiny Tots dance class. My family holds a Golf scholarship scramble annually which I do enjoy and put a lot of time into.

Miles Dewey

Ever since I was a kid I had a fascination with planes as well as tinkering with things. As I got older and was able to drive, I was drawn to working on and modifying cars, so I combined those interests and decided to go to school to get my A&P license so I can work on planes for my career!
Work on cars, hiking, video games, hanging out with friends.
