I have been an administrator, marketer, aircraft sales, aircraft service, and recruiter in aviation for more than a decade now and love what I do. I enjoy helping those who aspire to learn to fly, whether privately or professionally. I am currently the president of Pilot Career Hub, where we prepare individuals to start learning how to become private or professional aviators. I enjoy traveling around the world where I meet aviation professionals at a variety of events and forums. This industry is diverse and vast... I am never bored and truly thrive in this industry. I would love to share my passion with those interested to "Learn To Fly"!
Amongst my experiences is the ability to think outside the box to promote and product or service. Research is key for development, extracting exact data for the exact purpose. The key factors in what I do is understanding human behavior and how it perceives products and services.
If you are looking for a career or guidance towards an aviation career, I am more than experienced to deliver the information you need.
If you need guidance or assistance when purchasing an aircraft, I am your helper and can deliver your desired results.
Small business development and “start-ups” is a category I have great experience in and enjoy this area a great deal from its creativity standpoint.

I'm Damian Corbett, and I've carved out a niche as an expert in management, sales, persuasion, and social media within the competitive landscape of the automotive industry. Managing three top-tier franchises—Kia, Ford, and Lincoln—I apply a strategic blend of visionary leadership and operational acumen to drive our teams toward outstanding performance.
Starting my career as a Salesperson and swiftly ascending to be among the top 50 salespersons in the United States for Kia, I also achieved the highest sales for used cars in our region with Honda. These accolades are testament to my mastery of sales techniques and my ability to persuade and close deals effectively, qualities that have been crucial in my journey.
My tenure at a president's award-winning Honda store as a finance and used car manager refined my skills in managing complex financial arrangements and used vehicle operations, enhancing my profile as a comprehensive industry expert. Each role, from Sales Manager to Finance & Insurance Manager, has deepened my industry knowledge, making me adept at navigating its complexities and ensuring that every customer interaction is tailored for satisfaction and loyalty.
Based in the bustling market of New York City, I leverage the competitive environment to continually sharpen my skills. My expertise extends beyond direct sales and management into the digital realm, where I have built a robust social media presence with around 100,000 active followers. This platform not only amplifies my reach but also allows me to engage directly with consumers, sharing insights, fostering community, and setting trends.
Detail-oriented and passionate about execution, I pride myself on my strategic planning abilities. My approach isn't just about meeting targets but about creating memorable experiences that resonate with clients, thereby redefining the standard of service in the automotive sales industry.

I am an entrepreneur, designer, manufacturer, and investor. I have a manufacturing business with +/- 45 employees in central Illinois. Our capabilities are extremely diverse, as we manufacture metal fabrications, push pull cables, assemblies, powder painted automotive accessories, plastics, sown fabric products, and rod ends/linkages.
I am the product of great business and management mentors. I have tried a wide variety of ventures both successful and unsuccessful. All of which have taught me lessons on leadership and entrepreneurship.

FileMaker (business systems software)
Python
C++

I have done this for products in multiple applications and industries. I have done all of these steps alone for my products, as well as helping others with components of the process.
I have personally researched, tested, purchased, installed, run, and designed products to be made with a variety of machines. These machines I am comfortable calling my self an “expert with” are:
Cnc tube benders
Cnc wire formers
Cnc sheer plasmas
Co2 sheet lasers
