I fly drones and tell the truth.

I am a FAA Part 107 certified drone pilot with over 1,000 logged flight hours and a deep background in construction. Raised around building sites and tradespeople, I developed an intuitive understanding of how homes are built—knowledge I now apply to every inspection.

I founded APAK to integrate advanced drone technology into property assessments, delivering faster, safer, and more comprehensive inspections than traditional methods. Every report I deliver is unbiased—I don't sell repairs, just honest documentation.
