Katelyn didn’t come into private aviation to just book flights. She came to make things happen when others couldn’t. At Amalfi Jets, she’s the one clients call when they’re down to the wire: a last-minute trip, no aircraft available, everyone else saying no. She figures it out anyway. She’s secured planes on fully booked weekends, negotiated better rates on high-demand routes, and turned first-time flyers into loyal clients by making their first experience effortless.

Her motto, “Led by heart and backed by hustle,” started back in her luxury real estate days. While finishing her business degree at Long Beach State, she closed over $32 million in homes by outworking everyone else. She balanced school, showings, and negotiations while learning how to win trust and deliver under pressure.

Today she brings that same drive to private aviation. From negotiating with operators to curating options and overseeing trips start to finish, she handles every detail so clients don’t have to. They trust her because she’s proven she’ll pick up the phone, find a way, and follow through.

When she’s not working, Katelyn is probably at the gym, practicing her golf swing, or planning her next adventure, though she’s usually still checking her email just in case a client needs her.
