For Katerina Barilov, aviation is more than just work and play - it's her entire universe.  

Kat is one of those freakishly accomplished individuals who brings incredible talent and energy to everything she touches. 

After college, she landed a job in the aviation industry and requested a private pilot license as a condition of hire. When she saw a Pitts aerobatic biplane at the airport during a lesson, she was smitten. 

She has flown competition aerobatics and now flies her modified Piper Colt all over the American West. Hopping in the plane with her husband, doggo, and adventure gear, her airplane serves as their flying recreational vehicle.  

Kat holds an MBA and in a past life, was an investment banker at Goldman Sachs assisting top tier aviation, aerospace, and defense clients.

She is cofounder of Jump Aero, a start-up that is building an electric aircraft designed to help first responders access remote accident scenes more quickly and safely. Of course she had to become an EMT and join a search and rescue crew to get into the mindset of the industry she now serves. 

Prepare to be dazzled by this classy and intrepid woman.
