Paragon Aviation Group has added Hannah Vincent, director of FBO operations at Business Jet, to its FBO advisory board.
Established in 2010, the Paragon FBO advisory board provides strategic guidance and real-world industry insight to help ensure Paragon's programmes and initiatives continue to address the evolving needs of its global network of audited FBOs and handling agents. Vincent's appointment adds valuable expertise in FBO operations, customer experience, brand development and community engagement while reinforcing the board's commitment to collaboration, innovation and operational excellence.

She previously served as the company's chief brand officer, overseeing both the customer service and marketing teams. In her current role, Vincent brings a firsthand understanding of FBO operations and customer service, along with a unique perspective shaped by her experience across multiple areas of the business.
As the granddaughter and daughter of Business Jet founders Bob and Mike Wright, Vincent grew up in the aviation industry and began her career at Business Jet, working as a flight line agent and customer service representative at the company's FBO. Following her graduation from Texas Christian University, she spent five years in the nonprofit sector with UNICEF USA, where she gained experience in grassroots outreach, fundraising, marketing, events and advocacy.
Vincent's experience across FBO operations, customer service, marketing and community engagement provides a broad perspective on the evolving needs of customers, employees and the communities served by business aviation. She is also heavily involved with Business Jet Cares, a 501(c)(3) founded by the company to support veterans and kids in their local community.
