Desfor started appraising helicopters in 1984 and joined the ASA in early 2005. She earned her ASA designation as accredited senior appraiser in the MTS Aircraft Specialty by December.

Since then, Desfor served six years on the MTS Discipline Committee (two as editor of the MTS Journal and one as production manager of MTS’ Valuing Machinery and Equipment, Third Edition) and four years as MTS governor with stints on the strategic planning committee and the budget and finance committee.

She was elected international secretary/treasurer in 2015, serving that year as chair of the budget and finance committee and the investment committee.

She followed the next year as International vice chairman, serving as chair of the strategic planning committee and the international conference committee.

Beyond her distinguished service to the ASA, Desfor has also been dedicated to the helicopter industry for over three decades.  Her passion for the industry and her devotion to educating investors, financiers, and lessors about the remarkable qualities of helicopters as assets has influenced change and opened the doors to finance opportunities that were not widely available even a few years ago.

As president of HeliValue$, Inc., Desfor has inspired a new generation of leaders in the appraisal world and the helicopter industry.  Her focus on excellence, education, and service has made HeliValue$, Inc. a leader in the helicopter community for appraisals, used helicopter values, and reliable advice and counsel.
