Standing at 5'11", he carries himself with the quiet confidence of someone accustomed to high-stakes situations.
Flight Director
secondary
A middle-aged man with a lean build, short-cropped salt-and-pepper hair, and a clean-shaven face. His sharp blue eyes are framed by wire-rimmed glasses, and his forehead bears faint lines from years of intense concentration.
Technician
background
A middle-aged male engineer with a wiry build, short-cropped brown hair, and a slightly sunburned complexion from working outdoors. His hands are calloused from years of mechanical work, and he wears wire-rimmed glasses that reflect the bright Florida sunlight.
