Warren didn’t have a traditional start to his pilot career.

He began his career as an accountant, but realized one day that path was no longer for him. “After a few years behind a desk, I decided I would prefer that desk to be in the sky. Now, I have the best job in the world,” shared Warren.

He started his pilot training at Palomar Airport in San Diego and then became a certified flight instructor (CFI). He entered Aviate through CommuteAir, an Aviate-participating United Express carrier, and transitioned to United upon meeting program requirements.
