With an established background in manned and unmanned aviation, engineering, aircraft systems integration, operational testing, and business, Tony set out to address the growing critical needs gap in the UAS Industry.

In 2015, he assembled a team of highly skilled individuals to design the architecture for what is now AlarisPro, the most comprehensive UAS Operations and Maintenance program available! AlarisPro was built with a mission to improve the unmanned industry by providing a product and service that no one else had but everyone needed — a collaborative platform to provide an unbiased view of safety and to ultimately create an industry standard. Today, AlarisPro strives to foster collaboration among UAS operators and manufacturers alike, to identify and address potential safety concerns and to help organizations gather critical data that will ultimately improve overall airworthiness. Companies seeking a single solution to help eliminate the need to track and capture data across multiple platforms need to look no further!
