Our Story
After decades of protecting and serving the community, I launched Vista UAV to pursue a new mission — delivering high-quality aerial imaging solutions with integrity and purpose. With the support of the VA’s Vocational Rehabilitation program, I transformed a passion for flight and technology into a business that serves real estate agents, event planners, construction companies, and professionals across industries.
